Gordon Ford

Gordon Ford (1918–1999) was an Australian landscape designer who created rugged gardens which were noted to be of a distinctly Australian style.

After returning from service in New Guinea in WWII, he settled near Montsalvat, where he dug out a site and built a house made out of mud bricks from the clay.

Ford worked closely with British architect Alistair Knox. He trained as a landscape gardener with Ellis Stones.

In the last years of his life he trained landscape designer Sam Cox. Provided by Wikipedia
