Vision
To integrate the rooftop of the garage and edge of the house seamlessly with the natural surroundings of the property.

How we helped
The team worked with two spaces, firstly the garage rooftop where standard Eco Pillows were installed. Then custom-sized 20cm x 1m pillows lined the edge of the home. The second space required custom-sized Eco Pillows to be created to fit the unique shape of the rooftop it was being applied to. This space features Eco Pillows spanning across the 3.55m x 1.75m x 4.25 rooftop.

The planting pallet was crafted by our in-house horticulturist to incorporate Australian natives to tie into the natural surroundings while still giving a luscious outlook with low-maintenance plants that would withstand the elements – ensuring the roof lasts the lifetime of the home.

Vision
Situated in an idyllic location, the brief was to extend the green outlook from this family home and cover the roof visible from the living area.

How we helped
We installed 25 panels of eco pillows to the roof structure of this family home. Each eco pillow was pre-planted at the greenhouse so on installation day there was an immediate impact to the outlook. The planting plan devised by our expert horticulturist featured a mix of natives to tie in with the natural surrounding of the property to tie in the view and also to suit the Merewether climate ensuring the roof garden would be low maintenance and flourish throughout the year. Fitted with an automated irrigation system, it only requires minimal maintenance.

Vision
To transform the bland glass-panelled pool fence into a green oasis while also providing privacy from the neighbouring property.

How we helped
Our team devised a plan to pre-plant and grow-in three greenwall gabions at the greenhouse that were made in custom sizes to be applied to the top of the glass pool fence edge. The beauty of our green gabions is the ability to adapt them to any shape or size and no matter the dimensions they are light enough, due to our patented inorganic growing media, that the fence can withstand the weight applied. Due to the bend in the fence, we applied three gabions, two 1000mm x 400mm and one 2000mm x 400mm. The plant selection by our horticulturist ensured the height desired for privacy was met while also providing the aspect the client desired. The installation features an automated irrigation system meaning the gabions are low maintenance on only require trimming every 6 months.

Vision
To provide a biophilic outlook from the primary bedroom that is low lying with colourful coverage that doesn’t impede the view.

How we helped
Starr Landscapes engaged us to supply our Eco Pillows for a beautiful property that overlooks Hunters Hill’s waterways. Working together we devised a plan to install Eco Pillows strategically across the 160m² rooftop. Eco Pillows were strategically placed over the rooftops to create the outlook of a completely covered roof while still allowing access between the rows of pillows installed. Further planting and inclusion of Green Gabions on the roofs top have added height and layers to the rooftop.
