PJR Landscaping & Design
Toorak
A Toorak garden with upright ornamental pears creating a repeated planting rhythm along a dark boundary. Clipped hedging, rounded shrubs and low flowering plants add layers beneath the trees, while pale gravel and large-format paving create contrast with the greenery. This is a local example of PJR's work in Toorak.
Albert Park
A relaxed Albert Park garden shaped around generous natural boulders, warm gravel surfacing and structured planting. A fire pit creates a focal point for gathering, while the pergola provides a defined outdoor living zone behind it. The rock feature and planted borders bring texture and softness through the garden, resulting in a simple, durable landscape with a distinctly natural finish.
Port Melbourne
A refined Port Melbourne garden that uses sweeping light-coloured paths to move through dense, low planting. Groundcover softens the pathway edges, while layered silver foliage and architectural plants create contrast and year-round structure. The result is a calm, green outdoor space with a clear sense of movement and a strong connection between paving and planting.
Thornbury
A complete Thornbury backyard refresh bringing hardscape and soft landscape together in one build. Hand-laid crazy paving creates a generous, curved pathway through the garden, while a custom brick bench forms a practical edge and place to sit. Fresh turf, new planting and mulched garden beds soften the stone and make the whole space feel settled from day one.
Altona
Almost 12 months on and this Altona backyard is looking better than ever. From the putting green and stepping-stone pathway to the curved raised garden beds, feature lighting and relaxed firepit zone, every element was designed to make the most of the space while keeping maintenance to a minimum. The planting has filled out beautifully — a backyard built for living, entertaining and enjoying year-round.
West Footscray
A complete backyard transformation designed to bring together functionality, warmth and plenty of green space. Fresh timber decking, new lawn, garden beds and layered planting have completely refreshed this outdoor space, all working around the beautiful existing trees that give the garden so much character. Now we let the planting do its thing.
Kingsville
Custom built spotted gum bench seating paired with large-format paving to create a clean, architectural outdoor space. The L-shaped bench runs along two boundaries, with three standard-form feature trees planted evenly behind to soften the dark Colorbond fence. Hardwood steps connect the door to the paved entertaining area, and a turf lawn sits alongside. Quality materials. Built to last.
Kew
A completed Kew poolside build with a white open-batten pergola, a matching slatted backdrop and built-in bench seating. Warm strip lighting runs beneath the seat, with lights on the pergola posts. Large-format pale paving meets the pool edge, while hedging and established trees frame the dark boundary fence. The photograph shows the pergola, seating and paved pool surround as one connected outdoor space.
Deanside
Custom hardwood decking installed at the front entrance of a new Deanside home, creating a warm and welcoming arrival that elevates the entire facade. Clean lines, warm timber tones and a confident finish that turns a standard new-build entry into a feature of the home.
West Footscray
A front entrance makeover in West Footscray combining hand-laid crazy paving with a warm hardwood deck and timber steps. Black posts and trim, a white picket gate, and low-level wall lighting create a modern coastal feel. Dense green planting along the boundary softens the dark fence and adds year-round texture without demanding maintenance.
Footscray
Large-format natural stone laid in an irregular pattern to form a seamless, durable patio perfect for dining and entertaining. Complemented by steel edging, drought-tolerant planting, feature trees and subtle landscape lighting for year-round enjoyment with minimal upkeep.
Williamstown
A calm, spa-inspired rear yard centred around a feature sauna. A curved crazy paving terrace anchors the foreground, transitioning into stepping stones that guide you through lush, low-maintenance planting, warm, organic, and intentionally relaxed.
Yarraville
Formboss steel rings used as raised garden beds create strong visual structure throughout the space. Bluestone steppers set within compacted gravel form a clean, functional pathway — a contemporary, easy-care backyard with architectural finish and excellent drainage.
Yarraville
Large-format bluestone steppers set within lush turf guide movement directly to a feature barrel sauna. A simple, low-maintenance layout with open lawn and minimal planting — modern and refined, suited for both relaxation and everyday use.
Newport
A curved recycled brick retaining wall creates a bold entry statement to this Newport garden. Feature planting frames the pathway, with Dichondra repens spilling over the wall face for a lush, established finish. Designed to be low-maintenance and structurally sound for the long term.
Melbourne Inner West
A full entertaining area in Melbourne's inner west combining a custom pergola, hardwood decking, and hand-laid crazy paving. Built for year-round outdoor living, the project includes integrated bench seating, a fire pit surround, and structural planting designed to mature around the space.
Williamstown
A formally structured bluestone courtyard for a period home in Williamstown. 800×400 bluestone pavers in a running bond pattern, tight edging, a central feature tree, and symmetrical hedging form a quietly authoritative outdoor space that complements the home's character.
