For these newly retired homeowners in Farrer, the dream was simple - create a peaceful, stylish outdoor space where they could unwind, entertain, and enjoy the next chapter of life.

They pictured a light-filled alfresco area that felt connected to the home’s design and the garden around it. We brought that vision to life by building a custom pergola using carefully chosen materials that balanced beauty with practicality. The clear roofing lets sunlight pour in, while filtering out 99% of harmful UV - keeping the space bright, open, and comfortable year-round.

We also refreshed the garden to create a calm, leafy backdrop that completes the retreat. It’s now a space where everything flows together - indoor to outdoor, shade to sunshine, quiet mornings to long lunches with friends.

The kind of space that makes retirement feel a little bit like a holiday, every day.
