Ecologically Informed Landscape Design and Implementation for Sensitive and Regulated Environments
Our sustainable landscape design services integrate ecological principles with practical, functional design to create landscapes that are resilient, low-maintenance, and environmentally appropriate. We work on sites with ecological constraints, planning controls, or consent requirements, ensuring landscape outcomes support broader ecological objectives.
Designs are informed by site ecology, indigenous vegetation patterns, and long-term land management considerations, rather than purely aesthetic outcomes.
We regularly design landscapes for sites affected by planning overlays, Significant Ecological Areas (SEA), or consent conditions. Our approach ensures landscape elements complement ecological values and do not compromise protected vegetation or habitats.
Landscape design is often developed alongside Ecological Impact Assessments (EcIA) and Ecological Management Plans (EMP) to ensure consistency between assessment, mitigation, and implementation.
In addition to design, we provide landscape implementation services to ensure ecological intent is delivered on the ground. This includes site preparation, planting, and coordination with other restoration or land management works.
Our involvement during implementation helps maintain design integrity and ensures works align with approved plans and consent requirements.
Sustainable landscapes require ongoing management to perform as intended. We provide guidance on maintenance, monitoring, and adaptive management to support long-term ecological function and landscape resilience.
Where required, our suitably qualified and experienced ecologists (SQEP) can provide oversight and advice during implementation and maintenance phases to support compliance and positive ecological outcomes.
