Landscape and Urban Design

Scott Wilson has one of the UK’s largest
Landscape Architectural teams, providing leading-edge expertise to
the property sector in masterplanning, urban design, public realm
and landscape design. This design capability is complemented by a
range of other skills, including planning, environmental assessment
and all aspects of engineering.
Masterplanning
We provide clients with masterplan solutions that match their
aspirations and are realisable in today’s demanding planning and
economic environment. Using our multi-skilled resources, we provide
bold and contemporary design visions that are underpinned by
strengths in transportation, planning, planning, ecology and
economics. Whether the masterplan is to unlock the potential
of an under-utilised environment or to develop physical change on a
large scale, the resulting design enshrines our key masterplanning
principles: ease of movement, inclusion and safety, legibility of
space, adaptability, ecological sustainability and access to
high-quality public spaces.
Urban Design
Scott Wilson has a well-recognised capability
and expertise in Urban Design, with an excellent track record that
demonstrates visionary thinking. This has led projects to a number
of accolades including Royal Town Planning Institute’s Award for
Planning Achievement and an English Tourism Award. Using our
collaborative inter-professional environment, we seamlessly bridge
the boundaries of Town Planning, Landscape Architecture, and
Transportation Planning in order to meet the demands of a rapidly
advancing urban regeneration agenda.
Public Realm
High quality streets and public spaces are one
of the most important features of successful regeneration
solutions. Our philosophy seeks to create functionality-adept
places that produce a higher quality of life and economic vitality
– above all attracting people to use and enjoy new environments. We
have strong capabilities in visioning and driving through public
realm development, whether this is carried out using contemporary
solutions or designs tuned to conservation or historic
settings.
Landscape Design
Landscape architecture is one of our core
disciplines, exemplifying our approach to the design process. This
is about understanding the site and the client’s objectives, and
then applying our considerable expertise to develop visionary and
high quality design solutions. With extensive experience, we have
produced a multitude of successful designs for city parks, business
headquarters, campuses, resorts and open spaces. All these projects
seek to use our team’s technical expertise and design flair to
produce long-term solutions that are durable and innovative.
