This family garden shines with a smart zoned design

Clad in white limestone with built-in cantilevered bench seats in a sunken section, this paved area of a Sydney family’s backyard, designed by Landart Landscapes, was a deliberate choice to create a different zone. Lowering the seating creates a point of interest and having steps back up to the grass area makes the space feel a little bigger. The rest of the area is clear for all manner of uses – extra space for guests when entertaining or a spot for a basketball game. Turn the page for more of this yard.
