Vaucluse Tuscan Garden
This originally steep and difficult to use rear garden has been transformed into a classical oasis with an Italian twist. We consulted closely with the entire project team, and our client was deeply involved throughout the design and construction process. Our concepts were frequently modified on the go and were excellent tool during construction to resolve challenging level issues.
Beautiful earthy tone stone was selected for wall materials. In contrast, the turquoise finish to the pool tiles was to juxtapose the crisp Italianate surroundings. Earthy Tuscan pots were hand selected to complement the theme and were populated with fragrant lavenders, oranges and flowering Pelargoniums. Every finish and fixture was carefully considered with some being copper and some stainless steel. The delightful wall fountain was selected by the owner. The outdoor oven (which is frequently used) adds to the Tuscan signature.
