Paving | Garden Design – Brisbane north to the Sunshine Coast

Paving Brisbane | Garden design Brisbane – Instant Greenscene Landscaping adapt structural & horticultural knowledge to create aesthetic landscapes that are sustainable and unique to our customers requirements.

Great landscape design is balancing hard landscape surfaces such as paving, with complimenting soft spaces. Every garden needs a structural element to add impact to the design, and hard elements need green spaces to soften them.

Paving  

Structural landscape features such as landscape paving are both a practical and aesthetic element in landscape design. Timber stone sleepers are a great example of a rustic yet contemporary paving option. These utilize the look of traditional railway sleepers in a concrete, termite proof product. A great option for any Brisbane landscaping project. 

Traditional herringbone format in brick or clay pavers compliment the typical  Queenslander and suit the older established heritage style property. A more modern or contemporary paving option is available in a range of larger format pavers.

Paving can be used in a range of garden designs. These may include landscape design elements such as a formal entrance or a more rustic meandering path, entertainment spaces, pool surrounds or even a fire pit area. Paving is a perfect hard surface option in garden design.

We install our Brisbane paving projects either on a concrete footing or a compacted road base / sand footing, ensuring haunching is used to secure outside courses. Where pavers are used as steppers in our Brisbane Garden design , We choose to only use concrete footings, ensuring every paver is independently secured. This guarantees our product remains durable for years to come.

Garden Design 

Brisbane Garden design requirements come in many shapes and forms. Instant Greenscene Landscaping are focused on creating outdoor living spaces that are not only unique to your requirements but are sustainable, easy to maintain, and add value to your home or investment property.

Garden design theme is an important considered in the planning stage of any new landscape project. Planting theme will likely influence other structural landscape elements. Common garden design themes include Hampton style, formal / semi formal, native, tropical or sub tropical, contemporary and cottage gardens.

Garden design may be influenced by the surrounding landscapes, building style or an existing tree / plants. This may also influence structural design elements of the landscape.

Privacy / screening is another common area. A selection of low maintenance screening plants are available to suit most areas. Instant Greenscene also offers a range of structural screens and features that may also compliment your landscape

Green Walls

The requirements of smaller blocks, town houses and units has seen the rise in the requirements of green walls. Many of these options are quite high maintenance though this can be limited with modern options such as automated irrigation and reticulation systems. Some green wall options such as Star Jasmine or Ficus Pumila are relatively easy care and aesthetically effective.

Veggie Gardens

Instant Greenscene can create veggie garden in a range of materials from timber (avoiding CCA treated materials), as well as colourbond  and concrete products. Timberstone offers a natural rustic timber look but with the durability of a concrete product.

Landscape Design 

Landscape design is much more than than what you see. Subsurface considerations such as landscape drainage and site profiling is something that is too commonly overlooked, and will prove a costly mistake. Automatic irrigation will assist in making your landscape easy maintain while garden lighting will add another dimension to your project.

Selecting the right materials and plants for your garden will ensure a durable landscape for years to come.
