Combining character, a monochromic colour palette and cleverly integrated features, the warm and welcoming landscape reflects the architecture of the spacious, highly functional family home, offering its residents a range of outdoor spaces that are both useful and beautiful.

At the front of the property, a custom designed mailbox sets the stage for a grand entry. The garden welcomes guests with an exposed aggregate driveway, hardwood timber batten screens and lush, cascading greenery that waterfalls down from planter boxes on the homes facade.

The centrepiece of the backyard is an alfresco zone and pool area with extravagant limestone paving, which has been laid with care and craftsman precision. The modern concrete BBQ bench, floating landings and seat are accompanied by a state-of-the-art wood fire pizza oven. An off form concrete shower stands proudly as the feature of the backyard, the space completed with a Goalrilla basketball ring, high quality Gardens at Night lighting and a fully automated irrigation system.

Built to the highest standard with masterful landscaping and inspired by the traditional quality of Brighton, the project is a showpiece of cutting-edge design and luxury, delivering unparalleled chic, function, and flow in this idillic beachside location.

The unique design balances the small external area with a playful pool and spa layout; a statement lookout as you move through the inside of the house, and forms the centrepiece of the new landscape design. Working with the existing alfresco structure, we ensure the design equilibrium flows throughout, with careful consideration of transitions, materials and scale.

With a modern combination of concretes, natural stones, recycled red bricks, and vibrant plantings, we adapt a natural palette of textures and colours which reflect the home’s beautiful interiors. The design is carefully constructed with a harmony of hard surfaces and soft garden beds, featuring a contemporary sports area and basketball hoop, allowing all the family to utilise their backyard for sports training, without taking anything away from the high end finish.

A space which perfectly compliments the style of the house and lifestyle of each of its occupants, with a lifetime of memories to be made.

With a strong emphasis on subtle bold forms and integrated soft curves, the front entrance, in-situ concrete paths, swimming pool and its entry steps, juxtapose the sharp edges of this new, contemporary family home.

Overall the design pays homage to careful consideration of how one would interact throughout the entire property, allowing its occupants to enjoy aspects of the outdoor space any time of the day or night, throughout the twelve months of the year.

The abundant landscape construction works undertaken around the entire property, were meticulously orchestrated around a few existing garden elements and an in-ground swimming pool.

Overall the landscaping is clean, with modern simplicity and strong masculine forms. The hardness of the garden is balanced with a sensual water chute, combining to create a dramatic, beautiful timeless entry garden feature that sets the tone and standards for the rest of the home and a real talking point for all guests who visit.

The front entry features large (floating) concrete landings and a long water chute on a ‘wow-factor scale’ ensuring maximum impact and a calming ambiance to the entire front facade. Large granite boulders finish the entry garden elements off perfectly with their jaggered form, standing juxtapose to the clean lines of the hard structures for the perfect, balance of contrast.

The combination of simple and dramatic planting schemes around the property (such as the clean elegant Star jasmine asiaticum as under planting, to the tall slender acer crimson sentry maples) carries through the minimalistic design intent while softening the built form whilst not overpowering it.
