POSITIONAL HEADING TO BE REPLACED
Perched on the cliffs above Western Port Bay in Shoreham, the brief was simple: a lightly designed landscape, full of plants that move—framing, not obstructing, views of the coastline and resilient to harsh south-westerly winds. With such proximity to the coast, plant selection responds to the site’s sensitivity, prioritising responsible species, while allowing perennials to weave through a native and indigenous palette.

Plant choices such as Correas, Grevillea and Banksias encourage regular visits from Fairy-wrens, New Holland Honeyeaters and Eastern Spinebills, often seen swaying on the flowerheads of Kangaroo paws and Xerochrysums.
