The owners had neglected their back garden for some time, knowing that they wanted a complete re-design, incorporating a pool, a changing shed, a timber deck, and a new landscaped outside space adjacent their existing outdoor entertaining area. The block was on a slope and contained different levels. Dry-stone walling and steps were chosen to lead up to the pool and timber deck area. The owners wanted colour, year-round interest and bird-attracting plants. The plants selected were a compatible mix of exotic and native, all water-wise. A water feature visible from the lower entertaining area consisted of three pots with water falling from rustic taps above. A leaf sculpture in Corten steel from P.O. Box Designs was placed in front of a tall existing evergreen hedge. The landscape contractor was Phil Dawes from The Great Outdoors.
