A Repurposed Revolution aims to breathe fresh air into discarded objects, it inspires their use by integrating them into the garden in a way that is functional and beautiful.
This garden seamlessly incorporates the repurposed items into pieces that take you on a journey of their history and allows you to imagine a future in which we place value on the beauty of imperfection.
The meandering path seems to mark its own course, inviting the user to explore the natural flow into the different spaces including the seated area which invites you to pause and reflect, then to be drawn towards the recycled door which suggests that there is something beyond.
The plant selection celebrates the diversity and beauty of Australian natives. A variety of colours and textures in the flowers and foliage have been chosen to create a layering effect and softens the use of the harder elements.
The veggie box and water feature highlight the ability to incorporate functional usage into small gardens. The bath creates a focal point, bringing a pleasing sound component, as well as contributing to a microclimate and providing water for birds.

Such a beautiful garden Sebastian!
I love that you included the eucalyptus tree, It probably smells so good next to it.
I'm trying to figure out if that's a portulacaria afra planted there on top of the wall on the left?
Hands down to you Sebastian!
Great job my friend 💚🌿💯

Hi Joey, thanks for your lovely comments. That plant is a tasmannia lanceolata or mountain pepperberry!
