Beaumont

• Location: Beaumont, SA
• Project: Residential Design
• Client: Mr & Mrs Wheaton
• Completion: October 2009

Details:
A new Energy Architecture home and required an environmentally considerate garden to compliment the philosophy of the built form.

WAX designed a garden of mass planted native Australian plantings to increase biodiversity and reduce water consumption. A series of swales and detention basins were constructed to redirect storm water and retain up to 90% of the ground water run off.

A large productive area of raised vegetable gardens and fruit trees (watered by a grey water system) assists in the Client’s sustainability with waste reduction through a compost system.
