We design learning landscapes with spaces to play loud, places to retreat, and room to learn, explore and recharge.
From design and documentation to coordination and consultation, we work with students and teachers to create thoughtful, engaging school landscapes that respond to the needs of their communities.

This significant landscape project transforms the school grounds into an extension of the learning environment, embedding ecology, connectedness, natural sciences, play and sustainability into the everyday experience of students. Our role involved resolving complex site constraints, coordinating stakeholders and developing detailed construction documentation to translate the design vision into a practical, buildable outcome.
The completed landscape has been embraced by students and staff, providing a rich outdoor learning environment that encourages exploration, supports wellbeing and strengthens connections with Country.
