A playful family home, breathing from the inside.

This family home garden was developed in collaboration with Dan Young Landscape Architect. Designed by Dan Young, the central courtyard is a breathing core of layered subtropical greenery. It was carefully moulded to be experienced from different perspectives - from the upper levels, filtered views through the canopies of a grove of tree ferns; from the ground level, they can be traversed over rolling mounds of greenery.

The backyard, designed by Green Care Project, is a family-centred productive meadow, inviting inhabitants to play, lounge, and grow food. In this process, we explored ways to close the loop with construction materials and reduce waste. We repurposed defective concrete stormwater pipes from a local civil infrastructure supplier as raised food garden beds, which also doubled as retaining for the rolling lawn.

About the
Professional

Founded in 2015 from modest beginnings and an intent to do good on the land we live, Green Care Project has grown to be one of the most impactful environmentally conscious landscape firms on Australia’s East Coast.

Early on, we recognised the power that exists within an integrated model. We have progressively built a multidisciplinary organisation that spans across the domains of Landscape Architecture, Landscape Construction, Horticultural Maintenance and Environmental Consultancy. Our highly collaborative approach allows our team to leverage knowledge and decades of experience from each other, ensuring a deep understanding of the landscape process and what’s required to deliver unrivalled results.

Our headquarters based in the heart of Fortitude Valley was established in 2021 with the aspiration of being a naturalistic inner-city studio that fosters creativity and innovation. Our work takes us across the diverse regions of South East Queensland and Northern New South Wales, a land we’re truly fortunate and grateful to call home.

At ArchiPro we recognise and acknowledge the existing, original and ancient connection Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have to the lands and waterways across the Australian continent. We pay our respects to the elders past and present. We commit to working together to build a prosperous and inclusive Australia.
