01. BONDI GARDENS

The block on which the Bondi project is located is conservative in size. The property owners are a busy family who relax by entertaining family and friends and they had a sauna and swimming pool on their list of requests. Landart needed a clever design solution to fit it all in. The Landart design team of Matt Leacy and Tom Wright used glass as the element that would keep the structures feeling light and enable all areas to connect visually. 

The glass sauna design is a standout; it's complemented by the pool and designed to allow the eye to drift around the space, making the pool area feel larger overall. The clean monochromatic pallets help to provide a consistency throughout and evoke a sense of calm. Photo by Jason Busch. landart.com.au

02. BULIMBA 2 PROJECT

This private oasis is an artful blend of formal elements with relaxed touches that set the scene for comfort. The homeowners wanted to pay homage to tropical Queensland, so they used Gracilis bamboo as screening. It's a rapidly growing plant that creates a beautiful leafy boundary. The rows of bamboo meet in the pool area, affording the opportunity to frame a fragrant frangipani. It's a beautiful focal point. Large-format pavers offer a sense of connectivity between spaces, and a daybed positioned near the sparkling swimming pool offers the perfect vantage point to sit and relax with a long cool drink. Ambient strategic lighting casts a warm welcoming glow, allowing the spaces to be used any time, day or night. Photo by Studio Blackardt.
