Wetland Development

Wetlands play a crucial role in maintaining ecological balance and biodiversity. Our water engineering and environmental teams design and develop wetlands that support diverse ecosystems, improve water quality, and provide habitat for wildlife, while creating recreational spaces for people to enjoy. Read more about how we created a stormwater management area as a recreational reserve for the residents of Townsend Fields to enjoy.

Riparian Planting and Restoration

Healthy riparian zones are essential for protecting waterways and supporting local ecosystems. Our landscape architecture team design riparian planting and restoration options to stabilise stream banks, reduce erosion, and enhance habitat quality. Our approach promotes native vegetation, improves water quality, and creates resilient landscapes that benefit both nature and communities. Our work with Ngāi Tahu at Mānia Industrial Park took into consideration the historic use of the land and our client’s cultural wishes to create an area of native grasses endemic to the area.

Contaminated Land Services

Environmental contamination poses significant risks to health and the ecosystem. Our environmental team conduct contamination investigations and develop effective remediation strategies to address any issues. By utilising the latest methodologies and sustainable practices we work with clients to remediate contaminated sites, ensuring they are safe for future use.

Effective Water Management

Effectively managing stormwater is critical to prevent flooding, protect water quality, and sustain urban ecosystems. We design innovative stormwater management systems that capture, treat, and reuse stormwater effectively while providing recreational reserves for people to enjoy. Our solutions enhance natural water ways and support sustainable urban development. See how we effectively managed the retention and treatment of stormwater on a site with wet ground and high water table to create a wetland area at Cashmere Park, Christchurch.

Public Space Landscape Architecture

Creating inviting and sustainable public spaces is at the heart of our landscape architecture services. We design spaces that provide recreational opportunities, enhance urban aesthetics, and promote social interaction. Our landscape architects and urban designers understand local ecology, ensuring their designs meet our clients’ vision while contributing positively to environmental health and community well-being. See how we utilised carefully considered planting options to regenerate a much-loved community facility at Horseshoe Lake, Christchurch.

We work closely with clients to understand their goals, a single project manager coordinates with our experts across our range of services to deliver a collaborative solution.
