Dizzy Heights

This project was a collaborative effort with Bruce Stafford Architects and the second with this same client. The site is perched 80 metres above the ocean with dramatic and uninterrupted views to the east. Our garden design and layout are clean and simple and encourage movement from inside to out and across the site. A lookout, which was an engineering feat was created to provide an even stronger connection with the ocean for the brave. The plant selections are durable to withstand the often-hostile environment.

Completed: 2017

Location: Dover Heights

Scope:

  • Landscape Architecture
  • Construction
  • Horticulture

About the
Professional

We pride ourselves on providing a personal yet professional service, focused on clear communication and attention to detail; this is where we excel. Creating gardens is an organic process by nature, they take time from planning to completion and beyond; we never lose sight of the responsibility that comes with this collaboration and the trust that our clients have placed in us.

Listening first - Creating second

Our clients are diverse, unique, yet still like-minded, recognising the value in considered and well-resolved gardens. We have a common goal, and though it’s a journey we share, we are confident and experienced to take the lead. A process to reveal the requirements of our clients’ lifestyles, then create a considered balance between their brief, the architecture, and surrounds, whether it be in an urban context or more open or natural setting.

Our gardens are renowned for intelligent design solutions that celebrate our clients’ individuality, combining meticulous details and beautiful materials with unique and inspired planting combinations.
