Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG), a statutory requirement on most development sites, must consider how to maximise on-site BNG. We frequently clash with Landscape Architects whose focus is on making the design attractive, which is all well and good. Still, if this undermines the BNG’s onsite potential, it can cost the developer a significant sum in offsite habitat Unit fees.
Using the services of a Consultancy that offers Landscape Design, Ecology, and Arboriculture ensures a seamless process. It avoids potential conflicts between Landscape Architects, Ecologists, and Arborists, who might each hold different opinions within their respective spheres of expertise.
It has become abundantly clear that incorporating ecological concepts into Landscape Design can significantly enhance an area’s biodiversity. This makes an area more biodiverse, and studies suggest that, in turn, this improves the mental health of people who benefit from being close to the natural world.
We also undertake both Landscape Visual Assessments (LVAs) and Landscape Visual Impact Assessments (LVIAs).
Please contact us with your landscaping requirements, and we can discuss how to create a landscape design for your project that meets the local planning authority requirements and benefits local biodiversity.
