The Hilltop

The Brief

Our clients had down-sized from a ten acre property to this smaller block, with the aim of spending a long retirement in a visually striking garden that was easy to maintain.

Our Solution

Our clients have a passion for gardening and loved being involved in the design process and plant selection. The large white bowls and urns create instant highlights and compliment the contemporary architecture of the house. The architectural style of planting used in these helped enhance this look. Simplicity was also important to fit with the contemporary feel of the house, so long clean lines and a minimal number of different landscape materials were used in the project.

Features

• Large stand-alone bowls, urns and water features
• Architecturally striking, individual specimen plants
• Extensive areas of low maintenance, water free synthetic turf
• Use of mostly drought tolerant plants
