Land Forms

CONCEPT / CONSTRUCT / CULTIVATE

Specialising in natural swimming pools and landscapes, Land Forms provides landscaping design, construction and cultivation services in Sydney.

Our design inspiration comes from nature. We respect and respond to the natural environment rather than impose design upon it.

We preserve and utilise natural forms and processes in our work and use locally sourced materials where possible.

We encourage the integration of productive gardens and exploring the opportunities natural pools can provide for the inclusion of fish, wildlife and nutrient-rich irrigation.

Our purpose is to create healthy, living bodies of water and landscapes that serve both the wellbeing of our clients and the vitality of the surrounding environment.

WATER, NATURALLY NO CHLORINE, NO SALT.
Naturally filtered freshwater pools

TECHNOLOGY|
Natural pool filtration relies on creating a biological balance in the pool rather than a sterile chemical environment. Good bacteria and micro-organisms naturally remove pollutants and contaminants from the water, keeping your pool clean and fresh year-round.

LOW MAINTENANCE, LOW POWER CONSUMPTION
Natural pools require minimal maintenance, have very low power consumption and require no expensive chemicals. The filters are concealed inside a separate section of the pool and are embedded in layers of specially calculated and specified aggregates.

EXPERIENCE
Over the past decade, Land Forms has successfully completed more than 50 natural pool projects in and around Sydney.

ALL SHAPES, SIZES AND STYLES
There are no limitations on the design aesthetic of natural pools. The filtration area can be completely concealed in modern contemporary design or left exposed to create a natural pond feature beside the swimming area. The team at Land Forms can design and build customised projects on time and on a budget to the highest degree of detail.

We also specialise in natural pool conversions and can transform any existing salt and chlorine chemical pools into a natural pool.

BIOFILTRATION EXPERTS
For the past decade, we’ve worked independently and in partnership with leading experts in the design, installation and maintenance of biofiltration technology.

Land Forms was one of the earliest adopters of pool biofiltration in Australia and are experts in creating healthy biopools that thrive in our unique environmental conditions.

Natural swimming pools not only provide a much better swimming experience for our clients, but they also eliminate the need for harmful chemicals, greatly improve water efficiency, and consume far less energy than traditional pools.

REGENERATIVE ECOSYSTEM DESIGN
Loop Ecology is our process of minimising input and output waste in highly functional and aesthetic landscape designs.

Looped ecosystems are designed to close the loop where inputs such as energy and introduced resources are offset or exceeded by beneficial outputs such as food production, recycled irrigation and nutrient circulation.

ECOSYSTEM DESIGN
We design sustainable urban ecosystems without compromising on functional or aesthetic requirements.

Loop Ecology is based on the principle that we can provide measurable benefits to the environment as well as enhance the living experience of our clients.

Our design process takes all factors of environmental and human considerations into account before delivering tailored design solutions.

BIOFILTRATION
Biofiltration relies on a living matter such as plants, good bacteria and micro-organisms to naturally remove pollutants and contaminants from the environment.

Through a mix of selective planting and the installation of biofilters, we create healthy bodies of water and balanced ecosystems without the need for chemical intervention.

Drawing on global research and our extensive local experience we apply best-practice methodologies in the design, installation and maintenance of biofiltration systems in Australia.

BIOPOOLS
Our commitment to closing the loop began with the introduction of natural biopools in Australia. Land Forms were one of the earliest adopters of biofiltration technology and have delivered more than 50 successful natural pool projects over the past decade.

Our investment in supporting, understanding and developing the technology locally has helped prove biopools can thrive in our unique environmental conditions and eliminate the need for harmful chemicals, water wastage and high energy consumption in pools.

BIOGROW
Considering a productive garden over a passive garden can provide huge opportunities for output benefits in an urban ecosystem.

We encourage the inclusion of edible, medicinal and environmentally beneficial plants in all of our projects and provide a range of custom products and systems to support healthy and productive growth.

These include custom design solutions for grow beds, planter boxes, vertical gardens, hydroponic and aquaponic systems, nutrient recycling, composting, organic fertilisation and irrigation.
