Reshaping the earth

A landscaped outdoor location donewell pulls in elements of nature and the surrounding area to present a cohesive environment. It should also exist as an extension of the house to whichit belongs.
Distinctive outdoor living areas tailoredto the location and the homeowners' lifestyle are a hallmark of gardens created by Space Landscape, says designer and manager Tim Keat.
"We use the language of nature to create meaningful architectural spaces," he says. "All our gardens are designed to add value through their relationship to the immediate and wider landscape."
In this outdoor living area a series of integrated garden spaces begins with the distinctive entry experience. This consists of a shaded stone room that functions as a lobby. Beyond, a cloistered pergola walkway leading to the front door offers glimpses of the lawn court and gardens. A roof garden within offers cityscape and sea views and features a fireplace and louvred pergola above a dining setting.
"Although each separate area has its own distinctive quality, they form a coherent, seamless whole that, together with the house, make up an expansive living environment," says Keat.
