Barden Ridge

Commissioned at the very start of the home’s construction, this project was a true blank slate—an opportunity to design freely and craft a landscape full of visual intrigue from front to back.

​

The front yard blends modern planting styles with subtle nods to Palm Springs, creating a desert oasis vibe. Sculptural foliage and clean lines offer a welcoming yet sophisticated street presence.

​

Alongside the home, transition spaces are brought to life with oversized round steppers and a dynamic interplay of straight and curved forms. A bold palette of black, green, and white reinforces the crisp, geometric aesthetic.

​

The backyard continues the conversation between geometry and materiality. Limed Oak Millboard decking, white aluminium detailing, and natural stone contrast beautifully with deep-toned fences and lush planting. The result is a space that balances structure with softness.

​

Over time, dark fences will recede behind a living wall of Lilli Pilly Sublime, while standout specimens like Pandanus and Olive trees will mature into the defining features of the garden.
