By Wyer & Co.
Returning home to Sydney after a secondment abroad, out clients —a professional couple and their young children— were looking to create an outdoor space that could make the most of the weather they had missed in their absence.
An entertainer’s garden, the design should be dynamic and engaging, taking advantage of the property’s north facing aspect while framing, softening and enhancing the architecturally-designed dwelling.
The project is beautiful in its response to the architectural form where rather than simply providing a backdrop, the landscape is integrated with the property. But it also takes on a Palm Springs-like design philosophy, highlighting indoor / outdoor living and the application of simple, uncomplicated materials. It is sophisticated, vibrant and suited to a family of evolving tastes.
Wyer & Co. is an integrated landscape design practice, founded by Anthony Wyer in 2005.
Based in Sydney, our team of architects, designers, horticulturalists and construction specialists collaborate with our clients to create, construct, and maintain, exceptional landscapes, for exceptional homes.
Multi-layered, beautiful, and sometimes surprising, the spaces we design draw upon our deep knowledge of horticulture and ecologies; our understanding of the Sydney lifestyle and climate, and the unique aspirations and personalities of their residents.
Everything we do is founded in the belief that landscapes are a powerful medium to connect people to place, to tell stories through time, and elevate the way we live outside.
