Structural Engineering Design – Landscapes & External Works
Engineering the landscape with design in mind.
Our structural engineering team works alongside our landscape architects and wider design disciplines to create robust, efficient and elegant solutions that are fully integrated with the landscape.
From pergolas, pavilions and shade structures to retaining walls, planters, pools and water features, we design structures that support the vision of the landscape while meeting the demands of construction, performance and durability.
Using advanced analysis, design and BIM coordination, we take structural solutions from concept through to detailed design and construction — helping turn ambitious landscape ideas into safe, buildable and enduring places.
Irrigation Design
Designing landscapes to thrive with less water.
We design intelligent irrigation systems that respond to the landscape, planting, climate and local water conditions. By balancing water demand with plant requirements, we create efficient systems that support healthy, resilient landscapes while reducing water use.
From hydraulic design and water demand analysis to equipment selection, network design and smart irrigation technology, our solutions are integrated with the wider landscape from the outset — supporting performance, efficiency and long-term sustainability.
Landscape Lighting Design
Shaping the landscape after dark.
We design lighting that reveals, enhances and transforms the landscape after sunset. Carefully integrated with planting, architecture, water and public space, our lighting creates atmosphere, supports wayfinding and improves safety while respecting the character of the place.
From feature and architectural lighting to efficient, coordinated lighting systems, we balance visual impact with technical performance — creating landscapes that are as engaging at night as they are by day.
Swimming Pool & Water Feature Design
Designing water as part of the landscape.
We design pools and water features that bring movement, reflection, sound and atmosphere into the landscape. From tranquil water gardens to dramatic architectural features and resort pools, we integrate water seamlessly with the wider landscape, architecture and user experience.
From concept through to technical coordination and construction documentation, we balance design ambition, functionality and buildability to create water features that become memorable parts of the place.
Wayfinding & Signage Design
Making places easier to understand.
Good wayfinding is about more than signs — it is about how people experience and understand a place. We create intuitive, accessible systems that guide movement, reveal destinations and reinforce the identity of the landscape.
Working across the public realm, landscape and architecture, we integrate wayfinding into the wider design language to create a coherent experience from arrival to destination.
