Landscape Design
Beautiful spaces that enrich lives, enhance places and protect our planet
We believe outdoor spaces as an essential part of meaningful placemaking. Our landscape architects deliver solutions that help to define the character of a space and beautifully integrate with the surrounding architecture. By fostering greater connections between people and nature, we prioritise people’s health and wellbeing and enhance day-to-day life. We have transformed all sizes and types of places, guiding projects seamlessly from strategy to completion.
We promote the wider benefits of effective, sustainable landscape design and enhance the environment utilising Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG). Together with our masterplanning team, we create beautiful, elegant shared landscapes, in which communities can flourish.
AHR showed an immediate and clear understanding of our brief, and their considerable knowledge and experience of the sector and locale was of great benefit in delivering the project. Their willingness to both manage and listen to the wide and diverse stakeholder group was a significant factor in ensuring the development’s success.”

Our Specialisms
The key expertise we offer to our clients
Outdoor learning environments
In education spaces, the benefits of providing access to exemplar outdoor learning spaces are proven, from increasing concentration and productivity, to boosting health and wellbeing. The spaces we provide in schools and colleges responds to the existing topography of each site and maximises the areas available for outdoor learning, sports provision and socialising, as well as necessary operational spaces such as parking and arrival zones.
Enhanced public realm
Together with our masterplanning team, we bring people together through shared landscapes and drive the regeneration of towns and cities. Our public spaces reflect and enhance the local distinctiveness of an area, for all to enjoy. We provide accessible linkages, connecting urban spaces and creating journeys through the outdoors to promote and enhance green infrastructure.
Residential outdoor space
Our landscape design within residential schemes retains and enhances the unique character of each setting. By delivering a variety of spaces including private gardens, communal zones, amenity and circulation areas, with high-quality hard and soft landscaping, we create spaces for individuals and communities to thrive.
Sustainable landscapes
Sustainability is at the heart of all we do, and our focus is always on making a positive impact on the future. Through collaborative engagement with local stakeholders, arboriculturists and ecologists, we are committed to improving biodiversity and leaving the environment in a measurably better state via BNG. We provide landscape strategies and mitigation plans that include wildlife corridors and where we can, provide a productive landscape for our communities. We promote the health benefits of green and blue infrastructure and work to tackle climate change by implementing Sustainable Urban Drainage systems (SuDs).
