Through a strong collaboration between all design consultants, this garden located in the heart of Elsternwick has helped facilitate a seamless transition between the original Edwardian architecture and the sleek contemporary addition.

​

With strict heritage requirements in the front garden, heritage materials were used in the landscape however were utilised in a contemporary way. The planting is a fusion of some traditional favorites that integrate with the period facade, together with contemporary style plantings that provide sculptural and seasonal interest.
