The LEEF Landscape Network is a group of Chartered Landscape Architects with a shared passion and commitment to improve the quality of our external environment.
Together we are a network of independent landscape professionals strategically located throughout England and Scotland. We choose to work together to offer collective experience, skills and resources to clients but retain our individual identities and personal service.
Our combined strength is that we bring the resource benefits and experience more associated with a large consultancy, but in combination with a more cost effective, flexible and responsive service. Complementary skills include landscape design, LVIA, horticulture, stakeholder engagement, expert witness and project management.
Each member of the network has a demonstrable track record both in the UK and overseas. We also share a common working history and have collaborated successfully on a number of projects. Our portfolio of joint projects currently includes new schools, residential schemes, planning appeals related to renewable energy proposals, flood alleviation schemes and the masterplanning/detail design for a large scale commercial development.
This unique blend of skills, experience and respect ensures that the LEEF Landscape Network is able to deliver a seamless resource to our clients wherever the project is located.
