(Entertainment-NewsWire.com, March 21, 2015 ) Melbourne, VIC -- 13 March 2015, Melbourne - John French Landscapes announced that their range of services now includes designing for irrigation plans, fountains, hardscapes, and pools. This is part of their ongoing dedication in following the vision of Ellis Stones, who is known as the trailblazer in the Australian landscaping industry. John French Landscape Design is a multi-awarded consultancy, design, and construction company for residential and commercial landscapes.
"Our goal has always been to create beautiful and functional landscapes for our clients, by focusing on using native flora with an eye on environmental sustainability," says John French, who has been interested in landscaping even before he founded his company in 1981. "Now we make sure that our landscaping solutions adapt to incorporating diverse elements, from pools to fountains to hardscapes.
John French Landscapes have long earned a stellar reputation for residential and commercial landscape design Melbourne clients prize. They work with clients as well as regulatory bodies and civic groups to create beautiful and environmentally responsible landscape designs that increase the value of the property.
Now the range of services includes pool design, which can go beyond the traditional and sometimes boring square concrete pool. Modern pools created by their landscapers can become a natural lagoon ensconced within a tropical paradise, including a calming mini-waterfall.
Front yards and backyards can combine disparate elements such as a patio, deck, fire pits and shrubbery into a perfect residential picnic area which acts as the perfect lounge for a group of friends and large families.
Garden design is also not just about aesthetics, such as how plants look and where they are placed. It is also about which plants are best for the level of care the clients are prepared to give for the garden. Environmental concerns are also addressed, by using hardy and drought-tolerant plants that minimize the consumption of natural resources.
Irrigation plans make full use of available underground and surface water, without damaging current and future ecosystems. Additional decorative elements include beautiful long-lasting fountains that blend with the garden's theme and hardscape elements like rocks and boulders that combine well with water elements.
"I've always taken pride in what I do, and I love creating a wonderful garden that clients are proud of," admits John French. "Look, the best part about what I do is being given a chance to create something that changes people's lifestyles and people's environments. It's a real honor and a real pleasure."
And as for the cost, this is what John French has to say. "A real garden doesn't have to be expensive, but it does have to be good."
