We had a great time last week at the Constructing Excellence Midlands Construction Summit 2026 at the Museum of Making in Derby. 🏗️

Plenty of interesting discussions, including the @EMCCAGrowthHub's plans for 100,000 new homes across the East Midlands by 2035.

What if the most important part of a development isn’t the building, but the landscape it sits within?🌿🏗️

Last Thursday, we joined @unilincoln architecture students for site visits to Waters’ Edge Country Park and William Blyth Ltd, alongside a guest lecture from Shona!

📖 From the Archives

We had the privilege of working with #NorthNorfolk District Council on a £4M transformation of North Walsham’s historic market town

As part of Historic England’s national programme, our goal was to blend physical improvements with community-led placemaking

Sandilands | Social Value: Hands-On Delivery 🌱

Great landscapes aren't just drawn on paper - they're planted in the ground!

We helped guide local volunteers on bare-root stock planting techniques and heel-in methods, fostering community ownership over the landscape from day 1

Sandilands | Access for all🌿

Working with @NationalTrust, we co-created three visitor zones balancing accessibility, enjoyment and biodiversity.

📏 2.5km accessible gravel paths
🌾 1.5km mown grass tracks
🌊 200m+ timber boardwalks

Inclusive design = Better experiences.

We’re proud to be heading to the @TBDEastMidlands 2026 East Midlands Business of the Year Awards as finalists for Employer of the Year! 🎉

We’re looking forward to celebrating alongside some fantastic businesses tonight!

Coastal landscapes like Sandilands are on the front line of climate change.

Rather than fighting natural forces with hard engineering, landscape architects harness nature-based solutions such as:

💧 Water storage
🌿 Carbon capture
🌊 Coastal habitats restoration

Wishing our wonderful Principal Landscape Architect, Leonie Brown CMLI, a wonderful birthday! 🥳📷

How landscape architecture accelerates nature recovery 🌿

Avocets, spoonbills, and black-tailed godwits are returning to Sandilands and their return was designed into the landscape from day one as we created the precise hydrologic, topography, and soil conditions nature needed
