THE MAKERS

TAKE A TREE

beautiful boab tree can be a dynamic focal point, even in a small space. This petite courtyard garden features a striking robust tree, stretching skyward, drawing the eye up. Drought-hardy succulents and mondo grasses with larger rocks also feature in the space. Meticulously positioned smooth grey pebbles form a wave, which emulates the flow of running water. The architecture and materials used in the home were replicated in the garden, ensuring an easy indoor-outdoor transition. The warmth of natural stone and the interplay of textures creates a relaxing Zen-like space, which can be appreciated as the homeowners move from one area of the property to another.
