Clever landscaping upsizes coastal dwelling. A luxury coastal display home by Buildwise at South Beach, South Fremantle required a courtyard garden to complement a coastal aesthetic and maximise the sense of space on a compact block. Tim Davies Landscaping’s solution employs a pool structure, water walls, framed decking and a biological pond to create a seamless water garden that visually expands the perceived scale of the courtyards, dining room and kitchen spaces. A coastally tolerant planting scheme is designed to minimise maintenance and mitigate future overlooking issues. Specimen planting and ornamentation is simple, mature and bold to reduce the impact of tight external space.
