Innovative landscape design featuring a serpentine lap pool and elegant outdoor spaces in Portsea, completed in 2000.
Location: Hotham Road, Portsea
Client: Private
Scope: Landscape & Pool
Completed: 2000
In order to ‘find’ space and avoid the predictable pool location for this Portsea landscape, we redefined the driveway and mirrored the serpentine line in the pool design. This allowed a lap pool with ample walk-out and play space while at the same time creating a seductive, feminine aesthetic. The charcoal powder-coated aluminium pool fence consists of vertical members throwing shadows over the stone driveway, creating an ever-changing afternoon canvas. Glass, floating timber landings and simple planting contribute to an understated beach house garden.
