Mt Eden Garden and Pool
By Shafer Design Studio
This eclectic garden was a very special design and reflected the personality and flair of its owner. The garden was a technical challenge on many levels and made use of every inch of space in the inner city setting. The house was an unusual concrete villa with Mediterranean influenced arched verandas which inspired a particularly eccentric feel to the detailing of the garden. It is an exciting space with many twists and turns and a surprise at every corner. The grotto-like weir on the pool allows a true waterfall with a cavity behind and, as the water in the pool is oxygenated, allowing clean water and no chlorine, the waterfall creates a special environment for ferns and other plants to grow in close proximity.

About the
Professional
Shafer Design Studio is a landscape architecture design studio with a team of passionate and collaborative designers producing high-quality landscapes. At Shafer Design Studio, we strive for innovation and imagination in all projects undertaken.
Simplicity, clarity and structure along with timeless design are features of Shafer Design Studio projects.
The team involve clients in the design process from the very beginning, being sensitive to their needs and the characteristics of the existing landscape and architecture. Rather than imposing our own style on a client’s garden, we prefer to act as tools, by which the clients can bring their own ideas to life.
Past clients have appreciated our open communication and willingness to create a design which is unique to their tastes and lifestyles. We prefer to keep away from fads and flashy design which can quickly date- instead we work towards simple, timeless gardens which will maintain their integrity for years to come.
“People who are involved in the process feel as if their gardens belong to them, and tend to enjoy them better.”
