Macfarlane Associates

We are a placemaking agency delivering meaningful public realm design for complex urban regeneration projects. Our portfolio draws on 20+ years of experience creating that sense of place for award-winning landscapes in the UK and worldwide from large-scale masterplanning to local community projects. Through the lens of the climate emergency, our consultancy offers a holistic approach to sustainable design. We dynamically engage with environmental opportunities as a way of tackling the biodiversity crisis. We provide client-focused design solutions through a highly collaborative approach. As an independent studio of landscape architects and urban designers, we communicate our vision clearly from feasibility to completion of the built scheme. Our resourceful design approach has rewarded us with 70% returning clients. We have a proven track record of successful schemes for market-leading organisations with challenging development briefs. “Bringing tangible benefits to people’s lives through rewilding urban landscapes is our mantra and connecting people, place and nature is our lasting legacy”.
