Designing with Nature: Inside the Landscape Vision of Wembley Hill

Tucked into the quiet streets of Box Hill South, Wembley Hill is a townhouse community shaped by nature — not imposed on it. Here, greenery isn’t an afterthought; it’s the framework. Tree-lined paths, native gardens, and open spaces come together to form a setting where community can grow naturally, day by day.

In the video above, we speak with Lisa Howard from TCL, the landscape studio behind Wembley Hill. She shares how the design draws on the rhythms of the seasons, using colour, texture, and native planting to create an environment that evolves with time and invites people to connect with it.

“It’s not just about how it looks — it’s about how it feels. The landscape here shifts with the seasons. Colours soften, textures emerge, scents carry on the breeze. We wanted to create an environment that slows you down, that encourages you to notice the small things — how the light moves, how the ground changes beneath your feet. It’s designed to be lived in, not just looked at.”

Whether you’re walking under the trees, chatting with a neighbour, or simply noticing how the light moves through your day — Wembley Hill is designed for that quiet, lasting connection between people and place.
