In one implementation, a method for dynamically determining presentation and transitional regions for content delivery. The method includes obtaining a first set of characteristics associated with a physical environment; and detecting a request to cause presentation of virtual content. In response to detecting the request, the method also includes obtaining a second set of characteristics associated with the virtual content; generating a presentation region for the virtual content based at least in part on the first and second sets of characteristics; and generating a transitional region provided to at least partially surround the presentation region based at least in part on the first and second sets of characteristics. The method further includes concurrently presenting the virtual content within the presentation region and the transitional region at least partially surrounding the presentation region.
