Hunter Valley

 

This striking architecturally designed home by Bourne + Blue Architecture located in Stanhope, this rural operating farm known as ‘Eden’ is situated on a hill overlooking the serene landscape of rolling hills and rural outlook.

The brief was to create a low-maintenance garden, that looked a little different than the surrounding landscape, whilst being sympathetic to the architecture. Inspiration was taken from two unique steel ostrich sculptures.

Dream Design Scapes creating a landscape design that showcased the beautiful modern lines of the home, enhancing the front entry using structure and form by utilising formed concrete stairs leading to the entry surrounded by low maintenance succulent plants.

The gardens comprise of Corten Steel edging filled with Deco-Granite gravel mulch. Unique sculptures and planting choices utilising lighting to produce shadows on the exterior walls at night.
