Landscape Architecture
As urban areas densify and expand, the integration of natural landscapes within the built environment is a constant challenge for city planners and developers.
Shaping inspired environments
We have emerged as a leading landscape architecture consultancy by challenging the traditional separation between natural and built environments and helping our clients to harness the productivity, livability and sustainability benefits of inspired landscape design.
Working across urban, rural, coastal landscapes and offshore seascapes we approach every project individually; from schemes that are enhancing community resilience to coastal erosion and storm surges in Australia’s tropical north, to designs that are contributing to urban canopy restoration, biodiversity and runoff management in major cities across Europe. Our goal is to deliver landscape design that reflects and responds to the unique character, climate and culture of the communities we serve.
Our sustainable solutions are underpinned by commercial awareness to deliver a resilient, fresh and vibrant approach to design. With end-to-end expertise we can support you throughout all project stages, regardless of sector, scale or complexity.
