This garden is set on a tricky sloping site overlooking natural bushland. The client’s brief was to rejuvenate a pool area, no longer used by the grown family, into a usable entertaining area. Neutral paving and stairs were installed and a gazebo erected to provide seating and shelter.

The relaxed look was achieved using a pallet of low-maintenance planting that complemented the structural shapes and contours of the sloping site. Feature native Tree Ferns with low-voltage spot-lighting added a stunning point of interest and shade to the more delicate under-planting.
