A contemporary landscape design unfolds with a prominent bluestone staircase and a captivating water feature.

Responding to the client’s brief for enhanced front entrance accessibility due to the property’s incline, the design incorporates retaining walls at the rear. These walls serve as a boundary for planted areas, effectively segregating the lawn for the children’s play.

The carefully designed front garden seamlessly fuses aesthetics and practicality, offering an inviting environment to welcome guests.Thoughtfully selected plants such as Arthropodiums, Pittosporum, Crepe Myrtles, and Buxus contribute structure and visual appeal to the garden.

Surrounded by two Acer trees, the water feature imparts a tranquil and serene atmosphere when in motion. A blended design is achieved through the consistent use of blue-stone pavers throughout the front area. The installation of garden lighting and irrigation systems ensures the space’s allure is accentuated, guaranteeing functionality day and night.
