Bulwer Avenue Garden
of North Perth House
A garden and house in deep relationship, this home considers and expresses the beauty of the domestic through connecting daily life to “a garden that feels ever-present from within the house”. Working closely with the client and architect, banksia & lime achieve an extending and embedding of family life into the landscape through views, movement, and function. The clients’ vision of ”a quirky bush garden with a homestead feel” was delivered by mirroring house utility areas in the garden and strategic placement of diverse native trees and shrubs to create the woodland feeling of being surrounded by nature.
Three fruit trees, one for each child, grow and morph as the children do. The lawn area will eventually transform into a vege garden for the children to grow food at home. "It has transformed the yard into a space that we can be in and see ourselves growing in." (Client)
"Future Perfect, designed to morph with the years-long changing needs of a young family, this deeply thought-out garden lies ready for anything.” Green Magazine issue 94
