PROJECTS

THE MAGI GARDEN

Given a completely blank canvass, with a design from Catherine O’Neill we commenced work, transforming a 3.6 hectare paddock into a formidable garden from around the world.

We incorporated an Australian Garden, a European Fall Forest, a European Dark Forest, a Japanese Garden, a Russian Birch Forest, an Estonian Garden also a 90 x 30 metre lake, an 80 metre long raised boardwalk, a waterfall, and over 1.3 km of steel edged pathway. Over two years planning and a year in the making, this project is continuing to evolve into a truly magical garden!

GREAT RIVER ROAD – LANDSCAPING

RFQ from the Shire of Towong was to help design, then create nine roadside stops, improving on existing locations, Along the Great River Road in North East Victorian and Southern NSW. They included Talgarno, Granya, Thologolong, Mount Alfred, Jim Newmans Lookout, Tintaldra, Corryong, Bringenbrong and Koetong. We constructed gardens, placed rocks – as roadside armour, poured concrete pads for furniture and sculptures and created pathways and gravel parking bays.

MYRTLEFORD – CEMETERY LANDSCAPING

Myrtleford Cemetery Landscaping:
The project brief was to utilise and beautify a wet and virtually unuseable part of the Myrtleford Lawn Cemetery and to also renovate the existing niche wall. We incorporated a ‘dry creek bed’ to the wettest part of the site, planted and irrigated other areas, fabricated two steel and timber bridges over the creek, constructed raised sleeper gardens for the standard roses and constructed buckshot steel edged pathways. We semi-demolished the old niche wall, re-cladding it in honed bluestone and travertine.
