Curtin - knockdown/Rebuild

Aesthetics, functionality and budget guide all Dimension Gardenscape’s designs. Our brief: To create a garden-fusion of European and Japanese elements providing family living spaces connecting the inside with the outside.

Front Night Time

The project was a year-long journey through their ‘knock down re-build’ and design evolution influenced by a maturing aesthetic and budgetary reality. Our designer, Michelle, created a flexible design to grow with the client’s needs: Initially as a fun-oasis for their little boy and dog, to allowance for a future pool.

We are very happy with the design for our garden by Dimension Gardenscape! It ticked all the boxes! The back timber fence hides the shed and clothes line yet provides privacy for the courtyard: a clever solution! From the outset, the team took on board our ideas and turned them into lovely spaces we enjoy. We are really proud of our new home which the garden is an integral part and look forward watching it develop in the coming years

Rear Garden

Hedges form essential components of the aesthetic complemented by bamboo screening and the fine details of Maples achieving functionality while avoiding formality.

Rear Zen Corner

The sensuality of the private courtyard, at the nexus of the master bedroom and ensuite, uses textures of stone, maple, light, water and steel affording a taste of an intimate Japanese Zen garden. From the street, the property radiates a noble-simplicity with river gravel, grasses and large paved pads. As the sun sets and the garden lights up, the house glows with a gentle yet commanding presence

The Grand Plan

The final plan, developed with the client and architect

We are very happy with the final design for our new garden by Dimension Gardenscape. From the outset, the team took on board our ideas and turned them into lovely spaces which can be enjoyed equally from inside our home as well as outside. We had discussed that we wanted an easy care garden that incorporated play areas for our son, it needed to be pet friendly, provide privacy for our ensuite courtyard and plenty of greenery. We also said that we liked hedging but we didn’t want the garden to be overly formal. The design that the team came up with ticked all these boxes. We love the grassed areas for our son and small dog to run around and that the cubby house was integrated into the plantings. The back timber fence which hides the shed and clothes line and also provides privacy for the ensuite courtyard was a clever solution. We also really love the beautiful Japanese maples which can be seen from inside the house. In time, the creeping fig, hedges and star jasmine will also help to soften our fences so that we have even more greenery which is very important to us with large windows looking onto the garden. We are really proud of our new home and the garden design is an integral part of this and we look forward to how the garden will develop over the coming years.
Thank you.
Kind regards,
