At Forever Green, we excel in creating stunning, functional landscapes that complement both the architecture of a home and its natural surroundings. For this highly exposed corner property in beachside Mentone, we designed a modern front garden that balances contemporary aesthetics with the relaxed beauty of coastal Melbourne.

The design features clean lines and a minimalist planting scheme, enhancing the property’s sophisticated yet inviting appeal. A striking combination of Spotted Gum timber fencing and upright Cypress posts adds warmth and texture while maintaining a polished, modern look. This carefully selected material palette not only enhances the home’s street presence but also ensures durability in Melbourne’s coastal conditions.

The planting scheme reflects the natural beauty of the surrounding environment, incorporating mass plantings of hardy, drought-tolerant native species. Lush Correa and Westringia shrubs, graceful Poa and Lomandra grasses, and structured Dianella create a layered, textural landscape that thrives in sandy soils and coastal winds. Ground covers provide additional visual interest while reinforcing the low-maintenance, sustainable design.

To ensure longevity and ease of care, Forever Green installed a fully automated irrigation system, strategically placed garden lighting, and high-quality paving that seamlessly integrates with the home’s entrance. Custom timber elements further enhance the design, bringing warmth and contrast to the modern aesthetic.
