The plants aren't right, but it gives an idea of garden bed locations etc. This is the video I sent him while he was at work (I was too excited to wait til he got home ) https://vimeo.com/143185903 These are some photos I've collected over the past year. Initial ideas were lots of colour and a 'cottage' theme. Now however we're thinking of simplifying it (plants are expensive!) and trying to do it in mostly natives. So I've got lots of native plant googling to do!

Orpheus Building the Metricon Glendale 38|Sydney Re: Landscape Inspiration & Design Concepts 37Nov 18, 2015 9:50 pm Hi all, I will be presenting a two part series (yes I know, I should have my own TV series too) for all you pool lovers/installers with your house build. Hopefully it provides you some landscape design ideas and inspiration! Part #1: 1. Curved pool and desk - I love the curves and timber deck! http://i1259.photobucket.com/albums/ii548/Liem_Nguyen/Mobile%20Uploads/Screenshot_2015-11-14-06-44-34-1.png 2. I like the steps and small waterfall feature. http://i1259.photobucket.com/albums/ii548/Liem_Nguyen/Mobile%20Uploads/Screenshot_2015-11-14-06-45-06-1.png 3. Wow, the seamless integration of the pool with the house. The glass window overlooking the pool is spectacular! This should be the standard for design a pool for everyone I reckon (IMHO) http://i1259.photobucket.com/albums/ii548/Liem_Nguyen/Mobile%20Uploads/Screenshot_2015-11-14-06-45-26-1.png 4. This one is too elegant and expensive! http://i1259.photobucket.com/albums/ii548/Liem_Nguyen/Mobile%20Uploads/Screenshot_2015-11-14-06-45-21-1.png 5. The balcony overlooking the pool with underwater lights is so cool. http://i1259.photobucket.com/albums/ii548/Liem_Nguyen/Mobile%20Uploads/Screenshot_2015-11-14-06-45-33-1.png 6. Lovely pool and landscape with a simple timber deck http://i1259.photobucket.com/albums/ii548/Liem_Nguyen/Mobile%20Uploads/Screenshot_2015-11-14-06-46-06-1.png 7. Another waterfall feature http://i1259.photobucket.com/albums/ii548/Liem_Nguyen/Mobile%20Uploads/Screenshot_2015-11-14-06-46-02-1.png 8. This has clean lines and manicured landscapes. Simple design but elegant. The paving looks awesome too. http://i1259.photobucket.com/albums/ii548/Liem_Nguyen/Mobile%20Uploads/Screenshot_2015-11-14-06-46-29-1.png @ Orph build thread: viewtopic.php?t=78328 Dream Metricon Glendale 38 (Sydney)!

Should I excavate and cut all of the dirt to level with the house slab or semi-excavate as per photo above? Both left and right… 0 24779 Thanks very much! And would the landscaper/contractor generally involve the engineer or is that something the client would do? Thanks for your help 2 9936 |
