This busy family of six wanted their new home and garden to provide space for them to be together with friends and family, but also areas for peace and solitude. The home featured a traditional weatherboard front, with a large contemporary extension on the rear designed by Tecture.
The simple front garden is packed with various foliage textures and the path leads you through the planting to the front door. The expansive rear garden features entertaining areas, a new pool that sits between the house and studio and a lawn.
Large concrete steppers link the house to the studio and onto the lawn, perfect for a kick of the footy. Simple boundary plantings create privacy and Snow Pear trees add height and soften the strong lines of the architecture.

About the
Professional
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.
