AWARD WINNING GARDEN
Our client was a young family of 6, who wanted to establish a private, safe, family-oriented space to reflect the semi-rural location, entertain guests in all weather and provide their young children a place to play and engage with the outdoors. It was also a priority to create a sense of maturity and permanence from move in day.Â
The clients love gardening and what gardens can provide, not just tangible benefits but the intangible, well-being benefits. The scope included the entire 2ha site and involved everything outside of the house, pool house and garage footprints. The clients wanted various quality spaces for their young children to grow and develop and these spaces included large useable lawn area, dedicated play areas, swimming pool and spa pools, all weather tennis and sports turf and hardscape areas for scooters, bikes and go carts.Â
The clients also wanted interesting and inviting entertaining/ relaxing spaces to flow directly off the house. The clients expected a high-quality finish with a sense of permanence, that would tie seamlessly into the architecture of the home. Our work included the Master planning, concept design and detailed design and specification of all works, for all hard and soft landscape items. All construction work was carried out by various builders, tilers, pool and court contractors and landscape contractors.
