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. |
