The Bridle Road Residence is nestled at the base of the Table Mountain and just off the coast of the Atlantic ocean in the distance. Cape Town, South Africa represents one of the most ecologically diverse locales in the world, and the landscape consultants who developed this project focused on the local ecology for this home’s magnificent garden. For inspirational ideas on landscaping your garden take a look at the following images. The heart of Bridle Road’s landscape is the Fynbos, a collection of fine shrubs that are native to a small piece of land encapsulating much of Cape Town. As Fynbos becomes increasingly threatened by fire and alien plants introduced by immigrants, the landscape architects for the Bridle Road project have created a safe commune for the plant around this home. The result, as you can see below, is lush, beautiful and most importantly– local.
