Landscape projects has been awarded several Civic Trust Awards, is recognised by CABE and the Design Council for its work. It has also been voted the Leading Landscape Practice in the North West,  by the Prospect Magazine in January 2005.
Their aim is to make the contemporary city a better place to live, work and relax. They aim to connect people and landscape through design. They really think about people as a whole and how we use space and work within it. They say that “our cities reflect this deep seated aspect of ourselves”, “while at the same time appreciate tranquillity and the deep satisfaction we derive from the time spent in contact with nature is just as impotent to us as contact with other people”.
Their main quotes are “People as the generator” and “place making as an art” they go on to say the best places are connected, they fit in well with the way people use space, they are comfortable, have shelter, feel safe and overlooked. They have a “special quality” that makes a place distinctive.
