Whyte Gardens Portfolio

Ashburton

The Ashburton Project

The contemporary design of this garden had two main purposes: to be kid friendly and have a space to entertain. The pool and pool house were existing structures that our design had to complement. In the backyard, the areas were segregated using multiple levels, materiality and planting.

The front garden has a freeform style, using scattered large rocks to soften the slope of the site. The main entrance steps are elongated to have the same purpose and to minimize the transition between the street and the front door. Over time the birch trees placed along the boundary fence will grow to create privacy from the neighbours.

Here’s what the client had to say:

"Our garden brings a smile to my face"

"The final design blew me away."

"So much interest and detail was put into the visual aspect of both front and back gardens. I love my decking, plants used and my outdoor BBQ area. What a difference it makes to use a landscape architect who is sensitive to your needs, with the end result being a garden that is so pleasing to the eye. Whyte Gardens thorough and professional approach was constant throughout the whole design and implementation process."

"We were lucky to have a personal recommendation to approach Whyte Gardens and consider their design for our lakeside retreat."

"The task was challenging with tight local regulations and a difficult block with which to work. We were delighted with their initial design and their professionalism in the build phase. They transformed the block into a landscape of which we are very proud. The design is sensitive to both the local community and to our home."
