Deb ignited a spark within me and I felt very passionate and inspired by the final plan.
Nina was so helpful in sourcing my outdoor furniture and pots. I couldn’t recommend them highly enough- would give 10 stars if I could!.

I engaged Vogue & Vine to bring my balcony to life. Deb nailed the brief! Her selection of plants perfectly fit the look of the space.
The balcony remains the star of the show with a perfectly themed planter box. Sensational!.

Does landscaping reduce traffic noise and improve privacy in Chatswood?
To reduce Pacific Highway and Albert Avenue traffic noise, we combine earth-berms, acoustic fencing, dense hedges (eg Podocarpus, Viburnum) and white-noise water features.
We try to orient courtyards away from sirens, add louvred screens, and preserve CPTED sightlines near The Concourse precinct.

How do you design for apartment balconies and courtyards in Chatswood?
We plan for shade + wind created by tall apartment buildings (plant selection + screening strategy)
Allow for lift access, delivery routes, and tight entries
Use lightweight pots/planters where load limits apply (confirmed by your building team)
Make it practical for busy zones around The Concourse, Westfield Chatswood and Chatswood Chase (privacy, noise, maintenance).
Do I need council approval for landscaping in Chatswood?
In many Chatswood homes, the first step is confirming the correct approval pathway with Willoughby City Council and the NSW Planning Portal.
Some low-impact works can be exempt, while other scopes (structures, levels, drainage changes) may require certification or a DA.
Exempt development: minor, low-impact works that meet specific standards (no council/certifier approval required).
CDC (Complying Development Certificate): a faster pathway for certain works that meet set rules.
DA (Development Application): more complex works or where site constraints apply.
Local controls: your scope is typically assessed against DCP/LEP requirements (site-specific).
