This one sits right on the edge of Canberra in the Ginninderry Estate. And the setting is as good as it sounds.
Our Macnamara project is a full front and backyard build on a block that backs onto open space with views most Canberra homeowners would dream of. A site like this demands a design that rises to meet it.
The front yard was designed to create a strong first impression from the street. Considered planting, clean material choices, and a layout that complements the home's architecture. Every element placed with purpose so the streetscape feels finished and intentional.
The backyard is where the design really had to work hard. With Ginninderry's natural landscape as the backdrop, the challenge was to create a functional outdoor space without closing off the connection to what's beyond the fence line. The levels step down with the natural fall of the land. Retaining walls hold structure while keeping sight lines open. Hardscaping zones create distinct areas for entertaining and relaxing without the space feeling divided.
That's the difference between landscaping that fills a space and design that shapes one.
