Creating Landscapes That Reflect Your Vision
Great landscape design begins with listening. We take the time to understand not just what you want your garden to look like, but how you want to live in it. Whether you dream of a peaceful native retreat, a sophisticated entertaining space, or a family-friendly garden that accommodates everyone, our design process starts with your vision.
Our Design Philosophy
We believe the best landscapes feel inevitable—as if they’ve always belonged to their site. This means working with, not against, the natural characteristics of your property. Melbourne’s north-east presents unique opportunities: the clay soils, the eucalypt canopy, the slopes that frame views to the Dandenongs. Our designs embrace these elements.
Every design decision serves both beauty and function. We consider how sunlight moves across your garden through the seasons, where natural gathering spots might occur, how the garden will look from inside your home. The result is a landscape that’s not just attractive, but genuinely liveable.
What Sets Our Design Service Apart
Our design-to-construction model means the team that designs your garden can also build it. This continuity eliminates the translation errors that often occur when designs pass between companies. Your design intent remains intact from the first sketch to the final plant.
We bring specialist knowledge to every project. After 30 years in Melbourne’s north-east, we know which plants thrive in local conditions, how to navigate council requirements, and how to solve the drainage challenges common to the region. This expertise is embedded in every design we create.
The Design Process
Our process is collaborative from start to finish. We begin with an on-site consultation where we assess your property and discuss your requirements. From there, we develop concept plans that explore different possibilities for your space. Through an iterative process of feedback and refinement, we arrive at a design that perfectly captures your vision. Learn more about what to expect during the design process.
The final deliverable is a comprehensive design package that includes everything needed to bring your garden to life: spatial plans, planting schedules, materials specifications, and construction details. Whether we’re building the garden or you’re engaging another contractor, these documents ensure the design is executed exactly as envisioned.
