Landscape Architecture


Landscape Architecture is the professional art and science of the analysis, planning, design, management, preservation and restoration of the land as a valuable natural and community resource. Landscape Architects are professionally committed to establishing a higher quality of life for all citizens through the best possible design of the built and natural environment by emphasizing the orderly, ecologically and aesthetically sensitive integration of man-made objects with the land’s natural features and human contextual setting. Landscape architectural design solutions seek to identify and preserve natural resources while creating livable and vibrant communities for people through the careful arrangement of buildings, roads, parks and open spaces in coordination with our customer’s development needs, goals and objectives.

Lu Engineers landscape architects are highly skilled in all aspects of a project’s design process, including the preparation of feasibility studies, concept plans, master plans and detailed approval and construction plans and specifications.

Our landscape architecture department practices in full collaboration with our full service staff of professional engineers, surveyors, and environmental scientists to provide comprehensive site planning and landscape architectural design services for a variety of projects. Our project experience includes recreational spaces such as parks and athletic fields, but we also provide design support to our land development engineers on a broad spectrum of projects including residential, commercial, industrial, academic and institutional.  Lu Engineers works closely with clients and town representatives to create efficient, functional and context sensitive environments.

We focus on the needs of the client and by developing a thorough understanding of the project site’s qualities, capacities, opportunities and constraints, then create pertinent and successful design solutions. We practice environmentally sensitive design by minimizing disturbances to the site by carefully arranging buildings, roads, parking areas, landscaping, lighting and other amenities in harmony with the site’s unique setting. Through site, landscape and environmental design, our landscape architects share a commitment to achieving a balanced relationship between community development and the preservation of natural resources.
