Why We Do…
A landscape is not just lines drawn on paper and translated to ground. A landscape is rooted in place, in culture. It strives to provide the greatest possible benefit to its myriad users - people, wildlife, plant life. We strive to create these spaces with integrity and levity. We all share one earth and every decision we make has an influence beyond itself. We strive to create positive chain reactions toward the old adage - leave it better than when you came.
…What We Do
Fieldwork Design Office is a full service landscape architecture and urban design firm based in Toronto with over 15 years of experience in landscape architecture, urban design, and horticulture.
Our visionary approach to landscape architecture and urban space places itself at the intersection of nature and design. We transform the spaces amongst and between buildings into living, breathing canvases that foster connection, well-being, and joy for all stakeholders.
Our team of experienced landscape architects, urban designers, ecologists, and artists are united by a common purpose: To create places where all forms of life can thrive. From intimate gardens to expansive public parks and comprehensive streetscape master plans, our projects span all scales. By collaborating with experts in hydrology, climate science, ecology, anthropology, engineering, art, and architecture, we push the boundaries of what’s possible and lead the way in creating inspiring, sustainable landscapes.
We have experience in all areas of landscape architecture including public parks, both small and large streetscapes, playgrounds, trails and public art. Every client and streetscape project has unique challenges, and requires a tailored approach to finding solutions. Our approach is grounded in systems thinking, ecological wisdom, and rigorous research.
Our approach implements resilient solutions that nurture healthy, equitable communities. Driven by passion, curiosity, and a spirit of innovation, we remain unbound by conventional limitations while remaining true to the tradition of the discipline. Our name reflects our dedication to meticulous site analysis, drawing from our roots in early fieldwork as the only way to truly connect with and understand a site. This deep understanding of each site’s unique characteristics allows us to craft dynamic environments that not only thrive but also inspire
