Landscapes For A Changing Climate
Green space that does more than beautify a property.
Eleven Scapes believes thoughtfully designed landscapes can provide shade, contribute to urban cooling, support biodiversity, improve outdoor comfort, manage water and create healthier environments, connecting our landscaping work to the wider conversation around climate resilience and sustainable development.
Our Environmental Positioning
A carbon-conscious, environmentally responsible landscape brand.
This is where Eleven Scapes is heading. Alongside our design and build work, we're building an interest in sustainable and low-carbon landscape materials and technologies, and in the role a well-designed garden or grounds can play in a warming climate, not just as decoration but as functioning infrastructure.
What This Looks Like In Practice
Four ways a landscape can work harder for its site.
Shade & Urban Cooling
Tree cover and vegetation placed to reduce heat load on buildings and hard surfaces.
Biodiversity
Planting choices that support pollinators and local ecology, not just visual effect.
Water Management
Grading, drainage and planting that manage water on-site rather than shed it as runoff.
Sustainable Materials
An ongoing interest in lower-carbon materials and technologies as they become available to us.
Honest About Where We Are
This is a direction we're building toward, not a finished claim.
Our environmental positioning reflects where Eleven Scapes is heading as a practice. We'd rather be direct about that than overstate it: the same standard of honesty we bring to a client's site.
