Showcase 07 Another Scott
Brown Landscape Design project
Pg 34- 35
This pool, alfresco dining area and garden combines classical and
contemporary elements to give this modern, contemporary home a timeless
appeal which won't date. The pool and creek bed which runs into it had
to be constructed prior to the house construction because of access
problems. This meant the entire outdoor environment had to be designed
before house construction even commenced. The result is a unique blend
of modern materials and classical elements which provide a
contemporary, drought-proof and low maintenance outdoor environment.
The house and garden relate to each other on every level and this
successful combination helped this home win the award Contemporary

See a classic pool within a large formal garden on the Mornington
Peninsula. Scott designed the garden eight years ago, and was invited
back to complete the setting with a pool. The pool had to be designed
such that it appears as if it was included in the original garden
design, and so Scott decided to alter a small part of the garden in
order for this to be achieved. The result is featured on pages 188-189. |
