Our fully integrated team of specialists is dedicated to designing and managing large-scale landscapes, historic environments, and commercial estates.
Our expertise spans landscape architecture, civil engineering and ecology, enabling us to create sustainable, innovative and commercially viable solutions for our clients.
We have extensive experience working with registered parks, gardens, and sensitive historic sites, ensuring careful restoration and conservation.
Our strategic approach to estate management helps implement key infrastructure improvements, including food & beverage facilities, visitor parking and public access enhancements.
We are also increasingly asked to develop long-term biodiversity enhancement strategies, incorporating Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) and Net Benefit for Biodiversity, while our engineering team design and implement estate-wide water management solutions, including sustainable drainage systems (SuDS) and flood resilience strategies.
Clients include National Trust Estates such as Lyme Park, Dunham Massey and Sizergh along with the Lowther Estate, Barnston Estate and High Legh.
We completed a scheme with Forestry England on a brand-new visitor welcome centre at Delamere Forest in Cheshire, the county’s largest area of woodland and a popular destination which welcomes over 750,000 visitors a year.
Our work for Halen Mon integrated a pop-up restaurant and an outdoor garden, strategically positioned to showcase its spectacular views over the Menai Straits.
One of our first projects at Sizergh Castle was to improve the visitor experience and we were commissioned to redesign the arrival space and enhance the site’s accessibility and aesthetics.
We were commissioned alongside Malcolm Reading Consultants to produce a masterplan for the British Library North site in Boston Spa.
Land Studio have worked with Lyme Park for over 10 years working with the National Trust to review the visitor journey from arrival to car parking and movement through the estate and garden.
Our heritage and visitor destination work often involves helping a site to improve the capacity for future visitor numbers. We also consider ways in which to enhance the overall visitor experience through a careful balance of historic layering and the introduction of new infrastructure.
The five-acre burial ground is owned by the Barnston Estate, an historic family-owned Cheshire estate. They came to Land Studio for advice on how to transform a field into a beautiful natural burial ground to replace the full burial ground at St Chad’s Church in the village.
We were really impressed with Land Studio. They are creative, a delight to work with and captured our vision and their own vision perfectly.
