Frontier Design
We are a multidisciplinary landscape architecture firm based on the Gold Coast, Queensland. The next-gen of frontier thinkers who fuse classic simplicity with avant-garde expression.
Open communication with clients sets the design tone for all projects we collaborate on. A reciprocal energy that nurtures a productive working process to involve, resolve, evolve. Our dedication to progressive design schemes and people-led solutions lights our creative path. This is how we continually innovate and shape bespoke lifestyle spaces that elevate living.
Because at the end of the day, people make the place, and the place makes the people
Nature First
It’s no secret that Mother Nature provides us with a modern-day balance to urban living. From sea to tree, it’s her grounding presence that provides respite from a digitally consumed mind. Bringing this sense of peace and tranquillity into a home or shared space is what drives us to intrinsically hone our design discipline. But we also like to infuse a degree of impact because this equates to an environment that produces positive energy. Our vision is to transcend the natural and the crafted in a human interplay that evokes good feelings.
A pleasure for the eyes, a canopy for community, some softness for the soul.
We proudly acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we are located — the Kombumerri families of the Yugambeh Language Region. We pay respect to their Elders past, present and emerging, and recognise their ongoing connections to the lands, waters and wider communities across South East Queensland.
