Landscape Design Plantscape GOLD
With limited space and the extensive client brief, a lot was to be considered within the relatively small spaces provided. Smart space saving techniques had to be planned out. When designing this garden careful consideration was applied to ensure a garden theme that was unique in its own right yet fully supportive of the property style, its environment and the allowable space.
The clients loved their time spent in luxurious Balinese Villas when on holiday and wanted to replicate this at home. Both living very busy professional lives they wanted a place that was away from the CBD and the Sydney hustle and bustle. The garden is very private and has a sense of intimacy this was planned out by utilising the strengths of the site and recreating any of the weaknesses.
Careful consideration was put into the material selection. Custom sandstone in a uniform, light almond colour range was selected as a base colour that would work well and show off the vibrancy of the gardens and the inviting light aqua colour of the pool. A custom hand shaped stonewall was actioned as part of the design. The wall acts as a low backing feature to the pool, and a place where drinks and nibbles’ can be placed. Functionally it negotiates the higher levels set by the boundary line behind. The wall extends further on and links into the lawn area gardens outside the pool area. The result is an interesting snaked presentation.
