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.

To build sustainably requires us to design holistically, and our unique integrated design approach enables us to develop innovative strategies that have a firm focus on future golfing demands and the environment.

We always consider the environment as a totality, and apply a truly integrated approach to responsible design. The proposal is inspired by the site; it is not an academic solution imposed on it. Our proposals always  aim to satisfy the widest variety of golfers.

Golf course architects collaborate with many other specialists: surveyors, contractors, agronomists, irrigation and drainage specialists, ecologists, computer-aided 3D designers and other consultants. All work alongside clients to develop fully integrated design solutions.

Every project starts with fresh thinking and leads to a solution that is tailored to the site and to the club’s demands. Design is typically undertaken by a small, close-knit team: the team that starts a project sees it through to completion, providing continuity throughout.

We offer a wide range of golf architecture services, from new course design to major renovation or targeted restoration of existing courses, plus our unique ‘acupuncture’ approach in a sustainable context.
