Planning & Landscape Architecture

Blending Science and Art to Create Attractive, Sustainable Landscapes

Landscape architecture is a discipline that blends science and art to deliver sustainable solutions that benefit the built and natural environments. Whether your project is a small site design, a local park, large multi-use development, or wetland bank, IMEG’s planning and landscape architecture team is dedicated to your project, from initial conception to final implementation. We apply our knowledge of the environment and design to create sustainable landscapes. Once your design is completed, we can also assist with your landscape management plan.
