We transformed a very dated and dysfunctional outdoor space with privacy issues into one that’s much more appealing and functional.

We levelled out multiple level changes to make better use of the space.  The custom bench seating is perfectly positioned to catch the sunlight, it creates an inclusive and social garden and it frames and retains overflowing garden beds.   Previously fully paved, we added a small turf area which visually helps to soften but most importantly creates a place of play for this young family to enjoy.

Always with a view to minimising waste and reducing cost, we reused existing sandstone blocks on site to create new raised garden beds.  Subtle geometric details add interest and tie in with the contemporary renovation of this semi.

Building a Beautiful Life Outside

We're a small but passionate and focused team of slightly garden-obsessed individuals. We’re all about Building a Beautiful Life Outside one home at a time. Based in Sydney’s eastern suburbs, we’re primarily focused on residential landscape design and construction in this area.

Founder, Andrew Sidie has over 20 years of industry experience and Stone Lotus Landscapes was born out of Andrew's passion for conceptualising garden designs and desire to oversee the entire outdoor transformation from initial design concept through to constructed completion. In doing so, Stone Lotus Landscapes offers a streamlined, efficient, professional and personal outdoor renovation solution. 

Over time Andrew has built a trusted team of outdoor renovation specialists, including landscape designers, horticulturists, landscapers, project managers, carpenters, electricians, plumbers, and pool specialists, to name a few. 

Stone Lotus Landscapes has since evolved into one of the most prominent turnkey residential landscape design and construction firms in the area.

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.
