Hardling Street

After meeting with our clients, we decided that to achieve the new goal of an amazing private rear pool area, the original old pool could not be renovated satisfactorily. As part of the Hardling Street Landscaping project, we set about designing a new pool located closer to the existing back deck so their young family had a better connection to the new outdoor spaces.

We designed an amazing 7ft tall recycled brick feature fence as part of the Hardling Street Landscaping project to transform the rear garden into a private sanctuary. Taller screening was added, complete with espalier and some gorgeous wall lamps. New drainage was installed along with an outdoor shower for the kids. On the right side of the home, we constructed a new concrete path and steps with travertine tiles in a classic style and a custom side entrance gate, allowing visitors to enter up the beautiful sideway.

To create a much-needed street appeal lift, we added a new fence and arbor, espalier, a new fountain, screening for the bin and service area, and lots of color through plantings and creepers.
