Our Team

Our team is highly experienced and share one goal; to advise on, design, and create incredible sustainable spaces with purpose that tell stories. We have a strong core of talent, enthusiasm, and skills. Our team originates from all over the world and are internationally qualified.

They seek to work for us because of our innate respect for the landscape, our dynamic vision, and our agenda for change.

EDLA has always had the vision of an open, honest, supportive team that supports each other, works hard, has fun, and does our utmost on every project to make a positive difference. We value opinions and want to have an environment where everyone enjoys the work we do and respects our clients and other members of the design team.

We are problem solvers and that makes us particularly valued within the project teams. We don’t sit back and stay silent and by doing this we always ensure that landscape is highly considered and part of the bigger conversation.

We are not clock watchers, we appreciate our team works extremely hard and we are always grateful for the dedication of everyone.

Together we are making spaces that tell stories.

We are always looking for talented landscape architects to join our team.  If you are interested in working with us, please contact our Practice Manager  Jo at office@edla.co.uk
