Workflow and services

Our landscape designs always begin with the identity of the site. We analyze the spatial structure, the character of the landscape, its historical layers, and ecological value. Based on this, we develop thoughtful concepts that provide direction while leaving room for dynamism and evolution. Whether it involves open spaces, park landscapes, agricultural areas, or the transition between city and countryside, we design spaces that are functional, legible, and sustainable. Infrastructure, planting, water management, and ecology are carefully coordinated, with attention to coherence and experience. Our designs are not fixed end images, but living systems that evolve over time, gaining meaning as they grow.

BuroLandschap regularly collaborates with governments, nature agencies and land managers on projects where landscape and ecology meet. In these often multidisciplinary processes, we contribute a creative and spatial perspective that complements the existing ecological expertise. We help translate complex landscape questions into clear visions, spatial concepts or feasible plans. We provide tailored management plans for our projects and support the preparation of formal nature management plans. We also guide associated studies, permitting procedures and coordination with relevant authorities and stakeholders. Our approach is focused, content-driven and adapted to the specific context of each site. From strategic open space visions to practical interventions in valuable nature areas, we contribute designs that respect ecological systems and guide projects with a long-term perspective.

BuroLandschap designs public space tailored to the location, the user and the future. We work with cities, municipalities and public authorities on a wide range of projects such as city parks, squares, school environments, sports parks, green streets and provincial domains. In every project, we aim for a balance between functionality, user experience, ecology and long-term sustainability. We seek solutions that create space for interaction, movement, tranquillity and nature within urban or village contexts. Our designs pay close attention to spatial clarity, material use, planting and the integration of water and climate strategies. Each design begins with a strong reading of the site's identity but is never afraid to innovate. We guide public space projects from concept to execution, including coordination with technical departments, permitting processes and tender documentation. Long-term quality is key, as is the involvement of residents and users when relevant.

BuroLandschap is often involved from the earliest stages of a development project. In this critical phase, we assist developers in creating a comprehensive landscape vision and advise on the spatial quality of the proposal. In close collaboration with the architect, we build an integrated concept in which landscape and architecture reinforce each other — towards both authorities and end users. We develop a tailored green concept for each project, grounded in the identity of the location and aligned with both urban planning goals and commercial objectives. With clear plans, solid green strategies and compelling visuals, we help present the project convincingly to planning authorities, advisory boards and potential buyers or investors. Our involvement continues in the later phases. Thanks to our technical expertise, execution experience and understanding of market dynamics, we ensure that designs are realistic and implementable. This allows us to support a cost-effective and streamlined process that results in high-quality outdoor spaces with long-term value.

BuroLandschap is known for landscape interventions that go beyond functional design. In landmark projects, we work on sites with a strong identity, often at the intersection of nature, heritage, recreation and infrastructure. These include experiential routes, landscape structures and iconic bridges that become recognisable elements in the landscape. We create places that leave a lasting impression through spatial quality, sensory experience and contextual integration. Renowned projects such as Cycling through the Trees, Cycling through the Water and Cycling through the Mine Terrilsdemonstrate how we bring infrastructure, landscape and emotion together as one coherent story. Our approach combines vision with precision. We collaborate closely with architects, engineers and technical consultants to deliver designs that are spatially strong, technically sound and feasible to build. Materiality, detailing and landscape integration are key throughout the process. Landmark projects require a specific process-oriented expertise. We contribute to permitting, communication, feasibility and execution, and remain involved down to the last plant or bolt on site.

Gardens are at the roots of BuroLandschap and remain a fundamental part of our work. From compact urban gardens to expansive castle grounds, we design with the same care, refinement and attention to detail. We aim for gardens with character, clear structure, thoughtful materials and a strong botanical identity. With in-house specialists such as a botanist and ecologist, we elevate planting design to a higher level, tailored to soil, atmosphere and maintenance. Our gardens combine aesthetics and ecology, and are designed to grow in value and meaning over time. We remain involved after completion, through tailored maintenance and follow-up. Whether a private garden, a care setting or a representative landscape, we deliver custom solutions from design to execution.
