Landscape Architecture

As landscape architects, we create healthy and beautiful spaces, the success of which is ultimately measured by the people who enjoy it, enliven it and make it their own, but also by the natural systems that flourish within it. This includes, but is not limited, to:

• Site analysis and master site planning
• Campus landscape planning and design
• Open space and recreation planning
• Park and playground design
• Streetscape design and urban revitalization
• Transit and transportation site design
• Active transportation planning and design
• Housing and residential site design
• Historic landscape rehabilitation and restoration
• Museum and visitor centre design
• Waterfront design and reclamation
• Design to current accessibility standards

We find smarter ways to move people and goods throughout cities. Our award-winning TOD services position transit networks for long-term success, with careful consideration of their surrounding environments and people. 

We dedicate a large portion of our practice to the improvement of the public realm. We see the design of complete streets, urban plazas, and other civic spaces as opportunities to encourage healthy and active public life, the cornerstone of today’s successful cities.

We understand the design complexity of shared streets and how their physical elements — paving, planting, lighting, fountains, furniture, public art and architecture — all combine to promote engaging social life, pedestrian comfort, and urban vitality.

Elegant, thoughtful, logical landscape design can create a space you’re proud to call home. Ranging from low-rise residential buildings to large mixed-use and resort complexes, we have successfully planned and designed sites for a wide variety of developments worldwide.

Our designs strive to enrich the experience and address pedestrian circulation, seating, signage, lighting, art or interpretive elements, roof garden opportunities, visual character, ease of maintenance and efficient vehicular circulation. We explore amenities and design themes that contribute to a distinct sense of place, personal comfort, and landscape beauty.

We have unparalleled expertise in creating a memorable campus, designing landscapes that respect the institution’s past and support its future.

Our projects communicate the institution’s values and priorities and meet a wide range of goals, such as attracting new students, improving safety, restoring historic plantings, improving circulation, fostering outdoor learning and making state-of-the-art facilities fit within a school’s traditional character.
