Brunswick
This Brunswick landscaping project required
the use of contemporary themed elements to the design to complement
the style of the house. A professional design was done to which the
landscaping project was adhered to, using materials to highlight
the project.
Large format Anston
pavers were used on the project for their contemporary feel, and
colour to complement the other materials and colours used within
the project. Render colours were selected to suit the concrete and
paving, being similar yet a subtle distinction from each
other.
Anston cap stones were also used for
the tops of walls to match. Steps were paved with the same product
also. All paving areas, walls and stairs were laid on a reinforced
concrete base/footing applicable to the soil characteristics of the
area.
Exposed aggregate concrete was
selected with a combination of quartz, blue metal and brown pebbles
in an off white concrete mix to suit the surroundings.
The neighbouring raw brick wall was
rendered over, before timber screens were installed, with a
stackstone feature in between for contrast
The shape of the rendered retaining
wall serves to suit the contemporary style, with the grid pattern
of pavers with river rocks filled in between to provide a contrast
between the concrete and the walls of similar colours.
The decking was extended to include a
BBQ area to the rear wall along the house, with a step surrounding
the whole decking to allow easy transport between house and
backyard
A feature screen was installed into the
garden with a stackstone face, with a wider paver in front on top
of the wall to use for a large feature pot or ornament.
The fence screening was installed
and covered with a thin bamboo reed screening and timber
border
