General note

The original landscape, designed by John Stevens, was a significant example of an early modernist garden, rare in Australia. It included areas of river pebbles in dramatic zigzag patterns and succulent plantings, some of which survive. He also designed the courtyard garden, with an abstract sculpture / fountain by Teisutis (Joe) Zikaris, which is separately classified. From Victorian Heritage Database.
