Landscape designers can really make a project come to life by innovative use of hard materials in a project, color texture and shapes all need to be selected to compliment the design of the house. With new materials coming onto the market at a great rate, landscape designers have an increasingly broad range to choose from. The art of matching materials is what makes a design come to life. Jim Fogarty of Jim Fogarty Design is renowned for clever use of materials.
When we visited Jim Fogartys own garden we were impressed by the selection of paving and wall materials. One thing that makes Jims' work really stand out is the clever use of varied and interesting plants in a project. Large textured foliage really added to the overall impact of the landscape design.
With councils requiring 35% penetrable surfaces, the use of open decking in the garden instead of pavers provides a solution. You can see more of Jim Fogartys' work at www.jimfogartydesign.com.au
