Studio
Caroline Hyett Gardens and Design was founded in 2013. Our approach to design blurs the lines between architecture, sculpture and gardens. We believe in the power of great designs to enhance people’s lives. We create balanced, welcoming spaces that flow, provide an effortless connection between your home and garden, and work sympathetically with the architecture of your home. We are committed to sustainability, and design for the smallest inner-city spaces to significantly larger gardens in Melbourne and regional Victoria.
