ArchiPro Project Summary - Transforming an unused tennis court into a stunning garden oasis with a new pool, lush perennial landscaping, and a cozy outdoor lounge area in Balwyn.

Title:: Balwyn
Landscape Designer:: Bethany Williamson Landscape Architecture
Category:: Planning/; Renders

It is rare to get the opportunity to turn a tennis court into a garden, but we were lucky enough to get that chance. This property in Balwyn on a steep sloping block has a tennis court that sits unused. The house overlooks the court so there was great potential to create a beautiful space to look at, and spend time in.

A new pool runs down the side of the house with new steps connecting the pool terrace and the new garden. A large lawn is wrapped in mixed perennial plants creating a spectacular sight in Spring through to late Autumn. A new pergola encloses a lounge area next to the outdoor fireplace and connects to the renovated under house area, complete with kitchenette and indoor lounge. A workshop sits behind a produce area and espaliered fruit trees provide food while creating separation of each area.

Bethany Williamson Landscape Architecture. At BWLA, we are passionate about great design. Being able to create a space for someone that reflects who they are, but also enhances the way they live, is what inspires us. Our gardens need to perform in so many ways. Whether they are an escape from the business of life, a place to entertain and be social, or to produce food to eat and flowers to cut; they need to fit seamlessly into how we each live every day.We understand that the success of our work relates to how well the garden speaks to the architecture of the house, but also how it respects and blends with the landscape beyond. Working on gardens from courtyards to acreages, from coastal to rural and city properties, we love the challenge of working in different environments, different cities, and different climates. Each site has its own story to tell and we feel privileged to discover and tell these stories.
