Résidence Birch Grove

This contemporary residential garden in Oakville, On offers a fresh, bold aesthetic within a suburban neighbourhood

The materials and colours used in the landscape provide a strong integration with the design language of the house

Weathering metal mesh screens with integrated lighting provide syncopated structural elements along the front walkway

Different mixes of plants and bulbs were selected based on the varying light conditions and to provide seasonal interest.

The perforated steel lends a lightness to the structural panels and a visual continuity of the planting is maintained.

A pivoting wall on the porch designed by FWLA opens for direct access to the dining terrace for outdoor entertaining.

The side garden makes efficient use of the limited space available and borrows views of the surrounding landscape.

A large custom planter provides space for an herb garden beside the kitchen.

An Ipe bridge and stairs at the side of the house provide a seamless connection between the two main entertaining areas.

The side and back gardens provide strong connections between the indoor and outdoor spaces.

The trees were carefully placed to provide framed views from within the house, as well as to provide structure and shade.

The planting uses a mix of ground covers, mid-height and taller plants to create a more resilient and biodiverse palette.

Lush plantings frame functional spaces in which to entertain and relax.

A Clematis vine spills down a concrete wall into view form the basement terrace.

The materials, colours and plants used were chosen to create a bold, contemporary aesthetic.

A strong graphic fence treatment creates a bold background for birches set within a bed of mixed plantings.

The design seeks to be bold and innovative, but also -as clusters of daisies graze the metal screens- delicate and playful.
