The Contemporary Garden

FORREST ACT

‘The Contemporary Garden’ has been designed to sit quietly within the context of a modern architectural residence. Architectural finishes have been repeated in the garden with large stepping stone pavers providing a continuation of materials throughout the garden, pool entertaining area and residence surround.
