With space at a premium, the owners of this home in the inner-Melbourne suburb of Ripponlea wanted to make the most of what they did have. This involved the total reinvention of their front garden to create a verdant and welcoming landscape, at the centre of which is a swimming pool and spa with curves in all the right places.
"The owners wished for a completely new landscape with plenty of flowing curves and no straight lines. This was to be centred on a pool with an integrated spa that would be surrounded by an abundance of plants," explains Simon Buchanan, director of Landart Landscape Design & Construction, who was tasked with giving form to a design devised by Kate Seddon Landscape Design.
