Education & Playspace Design

Designing outdoor play spaces for children is at the heart of what we do at Hardyscape Designs. We create nature-based playscapes for childcare centres and schools that support learning, imagination, and healthy development. Each space is carefully designed to invite exploration, movement, and connection to the natural environment.

We work closely with educators, operators, and stakeholders to ensure our designs meet regulatory standards and align with the daily needs of children and staff. From small sensory gardens to large school playgrounds, we tailor every playscape to its context, age group, and educational goals.

Our collaborative approach ensures that every play space is practical, inclusive, and inspiring—supporting children's growth and their relationship with the outdoors.

Landscape Site Design

At Hardyscape Designs, we create outdoor spaces that are both functional and beautiful. We work on a wide range of projects, including commercial and residential precincts, childcare centres, public parks, memorials, and streetscapes.

Our goal is to design spaces that connect people with nature and improve everyday experiences for the community. Every project is shaped by a strong understanding of the site, its context, any constraints, and the needs of our clients and local communities.

We believe good design comes from working together. That’s why we collaborate closely with other professionals and use thoughtful design principles to deliver practical, sustainable, and lasting results.

Open Space Planning & Design

Creating well-planned, vibrant outdoor spaces that serve the community is a key focus at Hardyscape Designs. With extensive experience working alongside local councils, we bring strong expertise in open space planning and design across a wide range of public projects.

We prepare master plans for parks, sporting and recreation facilities, and detailed designs for public landscapes. Our approach balances functionality, sustainability, and community needs—ensuring each space supports recreation, connection, and care for the natural environment.
