Rural Character Design

Research properties typically sit on larger blocks within the Nillumbik Green Wedge. Landscape design here needs to respect the rural character while providing functional outdoor living spaces. We understand how to work with existing native vegetation and create gardens that feel natural within this semi-rural setting.

Large Block Expertise

With larger blocks come both opportunities and challenges. We design landscapes that make the most of expansive properties, creating distinct zones for entertaining, gardening, and passive enjoyment of the natural surroundings. Bushfire management is a key consideration, with many Research properties requiring CFA-compliant defendable space planning.

FAQ

Research FAQs

Common questions about our landscape design services in Research.

Do you work with larger rural-residential properties?

expand_more

Yes, we have extensive experience with larger properties in Research and similar areas within Nillumbik. We design landscapes that balance functional outdoor living with the natural, rural character these properties offer.

Can you work around existing native trees?

expand_more

Absolutely. Protecting and incorporating existing native eucalypts is central to our design approach in Research and throughout Nillumbik. We design around significant trees and integrate them into the overall landscape.

How do you handle bushfire risk in Research?

expand_more

Research has high bushfire risk due to its eucalypt woodland setting. We design with CFA guidelines in mind, creating defendable spaces, selecting appropriate plants, and positioning structures to reduce fire risk while maintaining aesthetic appeal.

Serving Research & Surrounds

Research sits at the heart of Nillumbik, named from the gold rush era when prospectors "researched" Swiper's Gully for gold. Today, the suburb retains its rural character with 1-35 acre blocks and established native vegetation.

We've designed landscapes for properties near Eltham College, rural homesteads in the surrounding hills, and bushfire-prone sites that require CFA-compliant defendable space planning.

Our designs respect the Nillumbik Green Wedge character while creating functional outdoor living zones, native revegetation areas, and fire-safe landscape buffers.
