OUR PHILOSPHY & ETHOS

NATURE IN DESIGN
Nature in Design defines our philosophical approach, recognising our deep connection to the earth and the interdependence of all life within its natural systems. This principle underpins every decision we make.
​
We work in an evidence-based, environmentally responsible way, ensuring that each intervention responds to ecological processes, landscape character and long-term resilience.
Rather than imposing solutions, we seek to understand and work with natural systems — shaping landscapes that support biodiversity, function sustainably and endure over time.


CONTEXT BEFORE INTERVENTION
Every landscape sits within a wider setting — ecological, cultural & visual.
We prioritise understanding context before proposing change.
​
This reinforces:
-
rural credibility
-
planning credibility
-
conservation alignment
Based in Suffolk & working across East Anglia & beyond, we are committed to supporting landscapes at parish, district and county scale.

EARLY INTERVENTION THINKING
The most important landscape decisions are often made at the earliest stages of a project. We aim to contribute early, helping shape proposals before constraints become costly problems.
Our work integrates planning expertise, design creativity, scientific insight & ecological understanding.
Through bespoke project management & carefully tailored solutions, we respond to the specific qualities of each site, reflect our clients’ aspirations & respect the landscapes in which our work sits.


CREATIVITY ROOTED IN STEWARDSHIP
We believe creativity should emerge from understanding — not from fashion.
Our design approach balances imagination with responsibility, ensuring that every intervention is grounded in context, ecology and long-term management.
​
We shape landscapes that are both expressive and enduring, where aesthetic clarity supports environmental integrity and future resilience.
In this way, creativity becomes an act of stewardship — enhancing place while respecting its character and capacity to evolve.


PROPORTIONATE DESIGN
Not every project requires a large consultancy structure.
We offer senior-level input scaled appropriately to the size and sensitivity of each project.


DELIVERY DISCIPLINE
Design quality must be matched by delivery discipline.
Our work is informed by formal project management training, ensuring proposals are realistic, coordinated and capable of being delivered successfully.

COLLABORATION
We work comfortably within multi-disciplinary teams, integrating landscape with engineering, drainage, access and environmental requirements from the outset.


LONGEVITY & LIFECYCLE THINKING
We consider not only how a landscape is constructed, but how it will be managed, maintained and funded over its lifespan.


PROFESSIONAL INTEGRITY
As a Chartered Member of the Landscape Institute, the practice operates in accordance with its Code of Conduct, ensuring independence, ethical practice and professional accountability.
