I design landscapes for clients who have found that special piece of land and want to build a sense of belonging.

Philippa Dunstan

Registered Landscape Architect

Northern Rivers, NSW​

Wild Gardening is a landscape architecture practice based in the Northern Rivers of NSW, working with rural and acreage properties, families, schools, and community spaces across the region.

 

Every landscape I design begins with listening — to the land, to the people who live on it, and to the life they want to build there. The result is always specific to place: rooted in the ecology of the Northern Rivers, shaped by the rhythms of the site, and designed to grow more beautiful with time.

 

I bring fifteen years of landscape architecture experience — including public realm, community spaces, and registered practice — to every project, no matter the scale.

Rural & Residential Design

​

 

​​​

For acreage and rural homeowners who want their land to feel as considered as the life they're building on it.

 

From initial site consultation through to masterplan, planting design, and documentation — I work with you from vision to reality.

 

Starting from a complimentary 20-minute call.

Natural Play & Community Space Design

 

​

Playgrounds, school gardens, and community landscapes designed with genuine ecological knowledge and community engagement at the heart.

 

I have designed and documented spaces for councils, schools, and community over my 15 years in the industry.

Sustainable Property Design

​​​

​

​

Thoughtful land management begins with understanding how a property functions as a whole. From productive gardens and water-sensitive design to habitat restoration and long-term landscape planning, I help property owners create landscapes that are beautiful, resilient and practical to manage.

Design Consultation

Not ready for full design services?

 

A single consultation gives you expert eyes on your site, clarity on what's possible, and a clear direction to move forward — whether you continue with me or take it from there yourself.

​

$290 — in person or virtual.

I'm a Registered Landscape Architect with 15 years of experience across public realm, community, and private practice. I've designed playgrounds, parks, and productive gardens — and I've also moved my family to 14 acres in the Northern Rivers to live the values I bring to every project.

 

I work with clients who take their land seriously. If that's you, I'd love to hear about your project.
