Landscape Design & Construction

WELCOME TO TGB OUTDOOR DESIGN

TGB specialises in lifestyle properties and large rural estates. We create and/or renovate large projects in every aspect to harmonise the layout with key aesthetic and practical techniques. The use of soft landscaping such as planting provide colour, texture and form. We then combine that with carefully selected structural features such as paths and walls that fit into a holistic, connected theme.

Farm buildings including horse yards, stables, arenas and all affiliated infrastructure to outdoor entertainment and lifestyle spaces. We customise and shape your property to fulfil the details of your wishes.

LANDSCAPE DESIGN & CONSULTATION

Teedo will personally attend the initial consultation to start constructing a concept of the design. This process is conducted in an interview format to understand exactly what you want from your outdoor spaces and garden. Your house is not exclusively your home, but an element of your total living environment – and this concept is what we deliver. The site is assessed, then, structural and horticultural ideas are discussed to take you down the path of the elements and their costs.

A concept plan can then be generated which addresses the elements of colour, texture, form and harmony. A “first draft” is presented to illustrate the harmonious and holistic benefit. This plan is discussed in detail with you and any further alterations are made until all your tailored wishes are met.

The final scaled hand drawn draft is then completed providing planting schedules, plant catalogue and descriptions, recommended materials and surfaces, drainage plan and detailed construction drawings where required. All this information is provided to you in hard copy and on a USB so you can have a permanent digital record.

Where permits and engineering are required, we are able to manage this process on your behalf if needed.

OUTDOOR Buildings AND PAVILIONS

TGB Outdoor Design now offers design of unique out buildings including pavilions, pool houses, rotundas and gazebos. These buildings may include kitchens, built in barbeques and wood fire ovens.

These areas are designed to fit in with the overall concept and layout of the outdoor space surrounding your house with the same principles of aesthetic qualities and harmonization of a TGB landscape design.

Often these buildings require permits and engineering which can be a part of the TGB project management process if required.

DRAINAGE DESIGN

An integral part of the design process for TGB Outdoor Design revolves around the drainage requirements for the designated space. We go to great lengths to ensure that all drainage requirements are met for the protection of your house, structures, plants and pathways.

Often the design process starts with drainage requirements so that the overall masterplan will be successful from the beginning without later hindrances. From there we tie in the harmonization and aesthetic values to give you the best overall result in the end.

LANDSCAPE CONSTRUCTION

With long standing relationships with a number of quality landscape technicians, earthwork contractors, builders, stonemasons, etc, TGB Outdoor Design can project manage and build the master plan. It is important to deploy the most appropriate specialists for the particular elements to ensure the best possible outcome can be achieved. Teedo is meticulous on this delivery, is constantly on site to deal with any challenges, and will regularly liaise with you, to keep well informed on the progress.

All materials and products are of the best quality and fairest price due to the strong relationships developed over the past 20 years.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT

We select the most appropriate, skilled trades to implement the specific elements of your design. We have carpenters, concreters, stonemasons and the best general landscape teams with qualified horticulturalists.

The TGB Outdoor Design team oversee and manage this process to ensure optimal efficiency, minimal disruption to you and ensuring superior workmanship standards are upheld.

SUSTAINABLE GARDENS

One of our passions at TGB Outdoor Design is the idea of creating aesthetically pleasing, high yielding food production areas.

We can build vegetable gardens of all shapes and sizes as well as incorporating berries, fruit trees, herbs and chickens as extra options to give you a comprehensive selection of home grown food.

The principles of these gardens can be designed and managed with efficient and organic practices to ensure maximum nourishment.

OUR REFERRALS

Teedo was responsible for bringing major beneficial change to our home. Originally our back yard was neither one thing nor the other .A relatively small area of grass on sloping terrain and incorporating a selection of nondescript plants.

Teedo designed a superb landscaped garden for us and then built it precisely according to plan.

Clever use of materials levelled the site. Inclusion of a range of hardy plants significantly reduced the need for watering. Maintenance has been substantially eliminated.

Visually, the end result has been a huge success. We consistently receive complimentary remarks from visitors who are astounded at the transformation which has been brought about.

It is our great pleasure to recommend Teedo. A master craftsman in landscape design and construction.

We commissioned Teedo Beggs to landscape our property in Mount Macedon. The distinguishing qualities that determined our decision to go with Teedo were his knowledge of indigenous/native horticulture, his understanding of and familiarity with the gardens of Mount Macedon, and his ability to help us to articulate and visualize our own garden on what was a modern architectural structure on a sloping building site.

The ‘landscape challenges’ Teedo took on were significant, beginning with a sharply sloping block, significant ‘drainage’ issues, and the presence of large forest eucalyptus trees that we wished to keep. Teedo was able to masterfully incorporate our desire to create a garden that would complement or enhance the sharp angular features of the architecture, protect existing vegetation, include and incorporate native/indigenous plantings, build dry rock retention walls, and provide us with a beautiful outdoor living space that we desperately needed.

Teedo’s approach to his work impressed us from the outset because of his uncompromising high standards and attention to detail. We are exceedingly proud of what Teedo was able to realize and we highly recommend his work- without reservation.

We first engaged Teedo from TGB Outdoor Design to develop a master plan for our property. During this process Teedo took into consideration all of our needs ranging from how we intended to use the spaces through to budget. What was produced was an excellent overall design which met all our needs and could be constructed in a staged approach.

Post the design Teedo and his team have brought the master plans to life and we could not be happier with the results, particularly the outdoor entertaining area with its bespoke hexagonal pavers and elevated decking which overlooks the re-modelled dam.

We would have no hesitations in recommending TGB design (and have done so to many friends!), it was a pleasure to work with him and his team on our project.

We are very impressed with Teedo and his work. From the first meeting he listened to our likes & dislikes and the design he created reflected this perfectly.

His work has been first rate and through his extensive knowledge he has saved us thousands of dollars in build costs.

We have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone with a desire to create a wonderful outdoor space.
