Hotham Road
Location: Hotham Road, Portsea
Client: Private
Scope: Landscape & Pool
Completed: 2000
In order to ‘find’ space and avoid the predictable pool location for this Portsea landscape, we redefined the driveway and mirrored the serpentine line in the pool design. This allowed a lap pool with ample walk-out and play space while at the same time creating a seductive, feminine aesthetic. The charcoal powder-coated aluminium pool fence consists of vertical members throwing shadows over the stone driveway, creating an ever-changing afternoon canvas. Glass, floating timber landings and simple planting contribute to an understated beach house garden.

Barber is a Melbourne-based Landscape Architecture Practice. Founded in 2002 by Sam Barber, the studio is renowned for its thoughtful, gentle and pragmatic approach to landscape design.

Barber’s spaces are characterised by a commitment to provenance, proportion and cohesion, where architecture and landscaping are a seamless and symbiotic expression. By listening and learning deeply, to both the site and the client, Barber creates intuitive and connective spaces, that balance rigour with joy and evolve naturally rather than forcefully.
