The Terraces

Avoca

The garden reflects its owners’ diverse passions—a plant scientist and an artist—where science meets creativity. It is a vibrant blend of function and beauty, nestled on a sloping block with a series of terraced beds. Each level has been carefully designed to take full advantage of the slope, creating an intricate yet harmonious flow. The terracing helps manage the gradient while maximising growing space for both food and ornamental plants.
