Y3 Garden, St Lucia, Queensland
Built on the land of the Turrbal and Yuggera people
Dan Young Landscape Architect
Prior to the engagement of Dan Young Landscape Architect (DYLA), the garden of the Y3 House in the Brisbane suburb of St Lucia had suffered from a prolonged period of dry conditions, leaving what little remained of the site a dusty digging ground for the client’s two energetic Scottish terriers. The poor quality of the garden’s existing soil necessitated its wholesale removal, giving DYLA the opportunity to develop a new vision for the space. The Y3 Garden rises within the courtyard of an architecturally striking house designed in the late 1990s by Brisbane-based practice
