ABOUT LANDSCAPE
We value the landscape and all natural elements within it. We believe in a healthy environment and support sustainable landscape practices. We follow the principles of recycling, renewal and adaptive reuse and restoration wherever possible and support the notion of less is more when it comes to materials. We choose recycled timbers or plantation timbers from sustainably managed forests and select plants which provide habitat for wildlife, nourishment for soils and which can create the desired aesthetic effect without creating environmental harm. We design spaces and places which strengthen connections, provide visual and physical amenity, restore habitats and reflect the dynamic nature of urban, suburban, peri-urban and rural environments.
