APPROACH

Design

Gustafson Porter + Bowman is at the forefront of landscape design practice. Our work is original, distinctive and engaging. We create sensitive and appropriate solutions for complex urban sites. Our beautifully-designed landscapes add significantly to the land value of developments.

Sustainability

As landscape architects, it is our responsibility to raise awareness of the climate emergency. A sustainable approach is essential. And our profession has made a pledge, through Landscape Architects Declare, to advocate for faster change towards resilient design practices, for the benefit of the natural, social and economic systems we are a part of.

Engagement

Our rigorous research process enables us to engage with each landscape’s cultural, social and historical context. We create spaces capable of meeting the complex and changing demands of all users; serving as inclusive community spaces, business zones and destination attractions drawing visitors time and time again.

BUILDING INFORMATION MODELLING (BIM)

In a time of increasing pressure on our urban and natural environments, landscape architects are uniquely positioned to create spaces and places which improve the lives of people. Cities and urbanisation are becoming more intense environments for living, with multiple layers of infrastructure and activity integrated into the built environment and the thresholds that transition into natural areas. Consequently, our landscapes are working harder to support these technical challenges while maintaining the social and environmental value they must provide.

At Gustafson Porter + Bowman we work within this holistic framework to collaborate an innovate across design teams, understanding fully from inception to completion the potential constraints and opportunities of a project’s structure or infrastructure through BIM.

Our BIM Project Information Management is based on the guidance of the ISO19650:2018 – 1 & 2 for which we are accredited. You can find certification information here
