Situated in Flinders on the Mornington Peninsula is Bass Straight, designed by Melbourne Landscape Architectural Practice, Barber Design.
The studio is renowned for its considered, exacting and pragmatic approach to landscape design.
The landscape construction is simple, clean and refined, the elegance underpinned by the beauty of its rugged surrounds.
Bold design with landscaping restraint. Requires earthworks to be handled with the upmost care, blending and smoothing site cuts to be sympathetic to the surrounding landscape.
Precise attention to level changes, softscaping elements meeting hard surfaces with meticulous attention. The exacting counterbalance between bold and soft.
Hunker inside from the battering of the westerly winds, feeling every bit like you are still in the landscape. Retreat to a courtyard taking in all aspects of the landscape. Or just indulge in the sweeping views from any angle or perch, poolside, paddock or bass straight facing.
