Design Philosophy

Today’s golf needs are at the heart of everything we do. We audit all projects against global standards, while developing bespoke strategies that drive our environmental agenda.

COMING SOON:

Our New Sustainable Programme

ZERO IMPACT GOLF COURSE

SUSTAINABILITY:

Golf that Melts into the Existing Landscape

Design solutions are not only tailored around golfing needs but also aim to provide significant environmental benefits.

OUR VISION:

Introducing our Unique ‘Acupuncture’ Approach

We strongly support an acupuncture-like approach, in which earthworks are kept to the very minimum.   

By focusing renovation works on selected targets, we aim to create the maximum benefit with the smallest effort, the minimum golf course/landscape disturbance and lower costs.

Too often these days, architects concentrate on unnecessary earth movements or too big work areas rather than on the fine details that really make a difference, such as around greens and bunkers.

OUR MISSION:

Building a Better World

We support campaigns which aim to raise awareness of the intimate link between sport and the environment/landscape/ecology. We strongly believe that a mission of golf course architecture should be to increase the importance of sustainability in construction/renovation, and to build a better, greener future.

WHAT'S NEW:

Leeds Golf Design fully supports The R&A Women in Golf Charter and is proud to be a signatory of this initiative which is very much in line with our firm’s philosophy.

Our enthusiastic architects’ team is committed to do anything is possible from the design point of view to transform golf into a sport that is engaging, accessible, welcoming and fully inclusive for girls and women at every level.
