Introducing the Caulfield Garden, a luxurious outdoor oasis currently in the making, designed to epitomise the art of entertaining. Nestled alongside an Architecturally designed home, this landscape project reflects the vision of a prominent restaurant owner, creating an outdoor haven that exudes sophistication and comfort.

At the heart of the garden lies a sunken lounge, a tranquil retreat adorned with a bluestone seating bench and vibrant customised cushions. The lounge, framed by bluestone steps and a curved wall, offers a perfect blend of contemporary style and timeless appeal, seamlessly matching the house’s facade.

Adjacent to the lounge, an inviting composite timber deck hosts an outdoor dining area, providing an ideal setting for alfresco meals. The resort-like pool, surrounded by lush Palm trees and Jasmine ground cover, beckons relaxation, while the outdoor cinema transforms evenings into cinematic experiences.

Enhancing the outdoor culinary experience, the BBQ bench features bluestone waterfall edges, a built-in Beefeater BBQ cooker, and a stainless-steel sink, ensuring that every gathering is a gourmet delight. The evergreen screen hedge planting of Ficus microcarpa ‘Hillii’ and the mass Jasmine ground cover create a lush, verdant backdrop, enveloping the space in natural beauty.

The garden’s design incorporates an array of textures and elements, from crazy paving to composite timber boardwalks, culminating in a harmonious outdoor space that is both inviting and inspiring.

Caulfield Garden is not just a landscape project; it’s a testament to refined outdoor living, where every detail is crafted to elevate the art of entertaining. Embrace the perfect blend of luxury and functionality, and let your outdoor space become a living masterpiece.

Embarking on a journey of urban landscape mastery, La Trobe Street Apartments stand as a testament to the seamless fusion of design brilliance and metropolitan allure. While the construction prowess was expertly handled by Normark Landscapes, the design and documentation for the Ground Floor and Level 7 Green Roof were crafted by PATH which was a pivotal step toward creating an outdoor haven within the heart of Melbourne. With an Approved Town Planning design, stamped by the City of Melbourne, this project unravels as a celebration of contemporary living.

For the Ground Floor, we detailed plants, paving, and planter boxes, creating an aesthetically flowing, low maintenance, transitionary space. The Level 7 Green Roof was envisioned to resemble the outlines of sun rays when viewed from the surrounding high-rise apartments, this rooftop oasis features a synthetic lawn covering, embracing both the roof and walls. Adding a touch of artistic finesse, the design incorporated ‘Tuscan Topping’ rock ballast, strategically arranged to symbolize the sun’s rays. Planter boxes, ingeniously equipped with a built-in irrigation system, complete the rooftop panorama.

Designed for practical elegance, these outdoor spaces are adorned with low maintenance features, showcasing synthetic lawn coverings and artificial plants. It’s not just an aesthetic choice; it’s a commitment to an effortlessly chic environment that persists in the heart of the city.

La Trobe Street Apartments transcend the ordinary, offering a retreat within the urban fabric.

1,210 sqm of land

Nestled within the embrace of a multi-residential canvas, Queens Garden unveils its unique charm across two units, inviting you into a landscape where innovation meets nature. Partnering with custom house builder Arch 10 and architect Xen Architecture, this project unfolds on a sprawling canvas of approximately 1050 square meters, boasting a distinctive 66-meter frontage with a building setback from the nature strip spanning 4 to 7 meters deep.


Crafted as a multi-town home for three generations of family,  Queens  Garden earned the nod of approval from the Monash City Council, laying the groundwork for an exceptional outdoor oasis. Eight canopy trees will stand tall once fully grown and strategically planted to create an enduring green canopy that harmonizes with the existing trees.

Beyond the ordinary, this landscape embraces recreational luxury with a bespoke golf putting green and chipping range—a haven for leisure enthusiasts. An entertainment deck graces both homes, beckoning residents to relax in the serenity of their outdoor haven.

Navigating the contours of the land, the landscape features 1.4m high timber sleeper retaining walls, creating not just boundaries but elevating the design to new levels. The incorporation of an extra waterproofing layer in brick planters underscores a commitment to longevity and functional beauty.

Queens Garden is a narrative woven with architectural finesse, familial warmth, and a commitment to environmental stewardship. Immerse yourself in the extraordinary blend of luxury and nature.

LYSTERFIELD GARDEN LANDSCAPE DESIGN, CONSTRUCTION & MAINTENANCE

Transforming the topography into a harmonious haven, Lysterfield Garden is a testament to the marriage of natural elements and contemporary design. This landscape project, undertaken with meticulous precision, unfolds a narrative of elevation changes, locally sourced materials, and lush greenery that redefine the essence of outdoor living.

The 3.8m high-level rise from the street towards the home is a bold statement, anchoring the design with an air of grandeur. Ascending these heights are the locally sourced Sawn Basalt entrance steps, each a 170mm rise in testament to the masonry craftsmanship.

The Upcycle railway sleeper bench seating provides a rustic charm, a nod to sustainability that invites you to linger and savour the surroundings.

The grandeur of the large rock boulders, serving dual roles as retaining walls, is heightened by the strategic placement of core-ten steel planters and edging. This arrangement orchestrates a captivating interplay of textures, skilfully crafting a robust boundary that seamlessly blends natural ruggedness with an industrial flair.

 

As you traverse the garden, the layers of greenery unfold – from clipped Westringia balls to drifts of native planting, creating a living tapestry that evolves with each step. The Dichondra embraces the organic round bluestone steppers, accentuated by strategically placed lighting that transforms the garden into an enchanting spectacle after dusk.

The concrete ramp side access invites you to explore every nook and cranny of this curated space, while the neat Buxus hedge around the porch adds a touch of classic elegance.

Lysterfield Garden is not just a landscape project; it’s a symphony of elements orchestrated to create a living masterpiece. From the locally sourced materials to the sustainable seating, every facet tells a story of craftsmanship, sustainability, and timeless beauty.

Ivanhoe Garden Landscape Design

Designed specifically to provide a textured interest to the modern architectural style, PATH created a combination of delights for the senses in this garden The use of accent foliage, such as shrubs and flowers, helps to break up the hard lines of the steel and rendered fence, creating a more natural and cohesive look. 

Ivanhoe Garden Landscape Design

This also helped to create a sense of privacy and seclusion, as the plants provide a buffer between the garden and the outside world. The maple trees provide fresh greens in spring/summer but vivid reds in autumn. Other than layering the ground with their dark handsome glossy leaves, the star jasmines in the understory planting give visitors a scented invitation in spring.

The front garden has two rustic highlights – a bowl water feature and a recycled wharf timber bench, adding character to the contemporary design. Laser-cut Corten steel screen featuring bamboo breaks up the planting bed of glossy dark green of the Magnolia with an artistic visual focus, which lights up beautifully when the sun sets.

The sandstone paving leads the visitor to the backyard, where a sparkling on-ground pool awaits. Vertical batten screen dresses the rear fence while providing a contrast to the swimming pool that is partitioned by transparent acrylic glass. A natural limestone walling product, ‘Coolum’ is used to complete the elevated garden bed and swimming pool retaining walls with earthy tones. In addition to its visual appeal, the use of “Coolum” also serves a functional purpose.

 The product is durable and long lasting, making it ideal for use in retaining walls that support the weight of the garden bed and swimming pool. This Ivanhoe Garden has lush planting and hardy durable materials to compliment our client’s modern style. More examples of our high-quality material selections can be found on our Instagram page.

The front garden Landscape Design presents us with a low-clipped Buxus hedge giving rise to the client’s favourite: a rose garden. The entrance to the house is flanked by a pair of French cast iron feature urns surrounded with a mass of red Nandina for added colour. This royal entrance is paved with herringbone patterned brick pavers and Turkish Travertine picture frame border to compliment the house façade.

Our focus in the rear garden is immediately captured by a generous-size solar heated swimming pool with built-in LED lights. This is comfortably encompassed by a leveled pool deck for sun lounges and open sitting area. Turkish Travertine pavers lighten up the space, with hidden-shadow-drainage under the Travertine stones for the subtle finish. A minimalistic custom copper outdoor shower is located nearby for convenience.

The impressive front fence is structured with rendered brick columns, bridged by wrought-iron sections and complimented with self attaching Boston Ivy climber trained up vertically, softening the wall. For privacy Portuguese Laurel hedge lines the fence, under-planted with white Hydrangeas emanating a subtle and sweet fragrance in the warmer months.

Decorative removable timber screens hide the service area whilst an interior window looks onto a shallow bowl water-feature cascading water into the fish pond below. A water feature backed with a vertical steel mesh trained with climbing Star Jasmine, emits the intoxicating fragrance of spring. Tall deciduous pear trees shade the house from the hot afternoon summer sun; in winter letting warm sunlight into the house.
