Intelligent landscaping solutions  

The owners of building sites situated on very steep inclines are often forced to spend vast amounts of money on siteworks and retaining walls.

After investigating various alternatives and cost implications, Mr.H.Kwasniak of Cape Town hired Terraforce to provide the solution to his problems. His garden is 360sq.m in extent with a fall of 10m and the instruction read as follows:

Create a reasonably sized level entertainment area next to an existing timber deck, provide access to all levels by means of an integrated stairway, leave old olive trees present on site, undisturbed.

Construction was completed in under three weeks, starting with a flush-faced vertical wall next to the deck, merging seamlessly into a spiral staircase.
By simply reversing the blocks, the wall was completed as a plant-supportive installation and a landscape contractor rounded off the picture to Mr.Kwasniak's complete satisfaction. 45 steps connect various level platforms.
