:: Landscape & Engineering Solutions

U PLAN's landscape architectural skills and experience ensure clients can achieve a more visually appealling and environmentally sustainable solution to an engineering issue or design outcome. This is achievable because U PLAN has close well established professional and collaborative associations with civil and structural engineering consultants.

Common collaborative design projects include: drainage corridors or easements, retaining walls, pathways and boardwalks, road and car park systems within a park or residential development, subdivision design including service and infrastructure corridors, pool, lakes, water features and shade or other outdoor structures.

Landscape architectural input is an efficient means of identifying an alternative and cost effective solution to an engineering issue, this ensures any proposed design outcome achieves the engineering performance criteria, reflects site usage and environmental attributes unique to each site.

Creative and positive interaction with other professional consultants such as the project design engineers is reinforced through U PLAN's strong association with a number of Queensland's principal civil and landscape contractors.
