Launch of Land Studio's new Civil Engineering division

We are delighted to announce the launch of our new Civil Engineering division.

Headed up by Land Studio Director Lisa Sawyer, the new service furthers our nature led design approach and offers our clients drainage design and water management systems in-house.

Our civil engineering expertise can deliver fully integrated, cost effective, nature led, Sustainable Urban drainage and water management solutions that enhance the landscape and add value to your land.

Lisa said: “What we’re doing at Land Studio is pioneering and very exciting. I don’t know of any other practice of our size in the UK that has landscape architects and in-house civil engineers working together as an integrated service. But I think that it is the future.

“Climate change has brought to the forefront the need for landscape architects and civil engineers to work closely together and to be involved with building projects - whatever their size – right from the start.

“This enables us to suggest that a building could be better orientated to make the most of the topography of a site or to show that there’s a more cost efficient, sensitive way of dealing with surface water than putting attenuation crates under the ground. It’s time to think differently.”

Simon Richards, founder of Land Studio, said: “We’re delighted to welcome Lisa on board. Our combined knowledge and expertise of land and natural systems gives us a unique insight into the design of drainage and water management strategies that can respond to our changing climate.

“We believe this is the future and a step change in working to combat climate change through design excellence and a fully integrated landscape architecture and engineering systems approach.”
