Farmers and CSG workers may come from different backgrounds and this can impact on communications between them. The CSIRO Shared Space project has shown that the aesthetics (visual aspects) of a farm is quite individualised and speci c to the farmer and potentially a cause for a lack of understanding from others.
This project developed a means of telling the story of changes in rural areas before CSG and during the development and production phases.
