Urban Jungle

Returning home to Sydney after a secondment abroad, our clients were looking to create an outdoor space that could make the most of the weather they had missed in their absence. The design is dynamic and engaging, taking advantage of the property’s north facing aspect while softly framing the architecturally-designed dwelling.
