Transforming landscapes into legacies

Regenerative landscape design, and development

We help landowners, the public sector, and housing developers transform landscapes for the long-term benefit of people and nature by applying regenerative design principles to overcome complexity, establish achievable goals and create lasting change.

We are proud to work with:

Landowners

Whether you have a single acre or a large estate, we can help you regenerate it into a place of beauty and abundance.

Managing land effectively is a massive undertaking. It’s easy to get distracted or spend your time and money in the wrong areas. We take time together, helping you plan for the future and understand the potential of your place more deeply.

Public sector

Navigate design complexity with confidence, bring stakeholders together and create shared goals to help living systems flourish.

Land-based projects offer incredible opportunities to add value to people’s everyday lives while restoring beautiful places. Frustratingly, they can also fall into the trap of stagnation. We help you manage the challenges of your project successfully.

Developers

Healthy communities emerge from healthy places. Put people and nature at the forefront of your successful commercial development.

The UK has a long track record of creating housing developments that focus solely on profit. But that doesn’t mean change isn’t possible. We help you develop conscientiously to create real, longstanding communities.

Landscapes are complex but full of potential

We understand how frustrating it is when projects stall because you don’t have clear goals. Or when you have goals, but creating a workable plan feels maddeningly complex.

Working together, we produce designs and strategies that reflect your values and the true potential of the place so you can move forward with confidence.

How we create the conditions for life to thrive

We use our landscape architecture skills to help you design, plan, and manage your project to a fruitful outcome.

But we go further; drawing on regenerative principles to understand the needs of your place – creating beauty, functionality and resilience that evolves over time.

Damon Moore - Director of Mayday Saxonvale

“Landstory’s approach maximises the overall benefit to development schemes. They have the ability to design successful consultation exercises for medium, large-scale and complex sites in particular and to explain sustainable environmental methodology simply and clearly to the non-expert. They have made a very valuable contribution to our emerging masterplan with a focus on teamwork and envisioning the public space return.  Both in the standard of excellence shown by Landstory and their team and by their regard for biodiversity at this critical time convince me Landstory represents the future of landscape architecture for UK development and construction”

Nick Burch – Smallholder Farmer, Dorset

“Landstory has helped us to deeply understand and interact with the ground and natural environment with which we are working. The result of this support is a building and approach to the land that is sympathetic to environmental and conservation principles and that is regenerative in its approach to land use. We have and continue to learn a lot though working with Landstory and are very grateful for this.”

Mark Holloway - Project Manager Future Parks Accelerator

“Landstory was the perfect partner to develop our complex brief for the development of a landscape scale regional park along the River Stour, Dorset.  From the outset it was clear that they were inspired by our ambition and vision; and with their network of partners and collaborators, Simon Brown and his team brought a multidisciplinary approach – perfect for engaging with a wide range of public and private landowners, statutory and non-statutory organisations, and individuals.

Terry Meredith - Earth Farm Director

“Working with Landstory has amplified our project to the next level.
We have evolved agricultural practices and principles, are developing a wellness brand and are now seeking to work on the transformation of the food system in The Gambia. Landstory have given us energy, impetus and a lot of knowledge to help develop the project. We are very grateful for their support in helping us to challenge our assumptions.”
