Homogenization and other multiscale modelling techniques empower us to build efficient mathematical models for simulating materials with complicated microstructures. However, the modelling rarely systematically derives boundary conditions for the macroscale models. We build a smooth macroscale model for a two-layer one-dimensional lattice diffusion system with rapidly varying diffusivity and finite scale separation. We derive macroscale boundary conditions for this diffusion problem. Our approach is applicable to a range of multiscale modelling problems including wave equations.
