EXPLORE SERVICES

At the age of 11, Troy got his first job working in Mr Bannen's backyard on the weekends. Troy's love for outdoors living/gardens then evolved whilst working in the garden with his mum growing up.

In 2001 he started his cert IV in horticulture/landscaping and before even finishing his trader certificate, he (very proudly) became a foreman! After years of working on award winning projects and really perfecting his craft, Troy launched Contemporary Landscaping in 2004. 

Now with over 20 years experience in the industry, Troy truly loves bringing his client's vision and concepts to life through detailed design and construction, his client relationships are a massive priority and this doesn't go unnoticed.

Best Practice in Sustainable Landscaping

Landscape design, like architecture and interior design, operates on many levels.

It is as much about function as it is form. It’s as much about integrating the natural with the man-made as it is developing a pleasing natural aesthetic. It’s as much about social and community sustainability as creating inviting, uplifting environments for individuals to enjoy and explore.

This is why we address landscape design briefs as part of a much greater integrated and sustainable whole to provide the very best in landscaping services.
