The garden set on approximately 15sqm of space needed to be carefully considered to celebrate each floor. We chose to set a foreground of Moss White Birch ‘Betula pendula Moss White and a backdrop of Boston Ivy “Parthenocissus triscuspidata to the rear wall that would soon wander up to the 1st and second floors. Then the ground floor or forest floor as we like to interpret it looks to build a profusion of green textures through Hydrangea quircifolia ’Snow Queen’, Pinus mugo, Fatsia japonica, Ozothamnus diosmifolius and Viola banksii which also makes for access into the garden.

Once inside the space you find a natural bluestone seat that doubles as a step and also a track that leads down to the planned outdoor shower. As you wander down the track or through the house you can’t help but feel the fresh green feeling it has on the newly enriched setting.
