Landscape design featuring polished concrete steps and a serene garden of clipped ivy, enhancing the architectural beauty of a private residence in St Kilda.
Location: Alma Road, St Kilda
Client: Private
Scope: Landscape Design
Completed: 2010
Our friend, client and colleague, photographer Scott Newett “loves ivy and concrete”. Barber’s staggered, floating polished concrete steps provide an unpredictable entry to the house and connect the pedestrian gate via large stepping pads floating in an evergreen sea of clipped ivy. The white powder-coated fence provides a simple beautifully proportioned highlight. The pool renovation is sympathetic to the architecture, the adjoining garden and most importantly, our clients trained eye for detail.
