"BEST OUTDOORS EDITOR GARY TACKLE"

This project was carried out by Heath Landscape in conjunction with client Glenyse Webster. The project required a short entry between the road and the facade of the modern residence constructed by Graeme Alexander Homes.


The result is a tiered garden that creates a spectacular entry to this property. The use of lighting built within the stone stairs accenturates the wall. Paving has been set amongst the crushed rock between each level, which works well to both formalise the area and make walking between levles easier. There were some difficulties faced in the construction of this project in that the nature of the soil on the site was quite heavy making work during wetter periods a real challenge.


Stone was sourced from the local quarry, Hillview, and laid dry stone fashion on a reinforced concrete foundation. Organic soil conditioner and gypsum were brought in and mixed with the existing clay loam to help improve the structure of the soil. Use of natural elements, formal and native plants have coalesced wonderfully to make this an entry overflowing with 'wow' factor.
