PJC Consultancy’s team of experienced landscape designers and landscape architects work closely with property developers and project design teams to address Local Authority Planning Conditions (Landscape Hard/Soft Planning Conditions and Reserve Matters) to clear planning conditions and pre-commencement conditions prior to project start or prior to the occupation of any part of the development permitted.

Comprehensive Landscape Architecture Across Diverse Projects

Our work covers diverse projects: urban and rural; residential, commercial, civil and infrastructure. Intimate plots to grand-scale developments, from conception to completion. Early project involvement from our team can steer a Landscape Led scheme with landscape analysis through our Landscape and Visual Impact Assessments [LVIA] and Landscape Visual Appraisal [LVA] services to inform architectural concepts. Supported by proposed Landscape Strategy Plans and understanding potential constraints and their mitigations, we offer our clients the best opportunities to tailor their projects to better achieve the end goal for the site and through the planning process in support of Local Authority Pre-apps stage or full planning application.

1. Landscape Assessment & Analysis

Our landscape architects provide detailed site surveys, landscape character assessments, and expert Landscape and Visual Impact Assessments (LVIA) to guide sustainable and compliant Landscape Led, landscape architecture design.

2. Planning & Strategy

We develop effective landscape strategy plans for outline and full planning applications. Our chartered landscape architects deliver SANGS (Suitable Alternative Natural Green Space) design, biodiversity net-gain proposals helping to calculate BNG scores, offering mitigating design for BNG credits, and support clients in addressing Pre-Commencement Local Authority Planning Conditions to facilitate project start and landscape character success.

3. Design & Masterplanning

From concept to detailed design, our landscape architects create landscape masterplans, schemes of hard and soft landscaping, SuDS features, play areas including natural play, NEAP, LAP, and LEAP, and landscape/garden lighting strategies that enhance both urban and rural environments.

4. Technical Detailing & Documentation

Precision is key in landscape architecture. Our chartered landscape architects prepare detailed technical drawings, including engineered tree pit designs, SuDS features such as rain gardens and swales, and planting plans supported by tree canopy calculations. We provide clear landscape specifications, management, and maintenance plans to ensure project longevity. Additionally, we manage contract documentation, tender processes, and accurate cost estimating, helping clients navigate every stage of delivery with confidence.

5. Environmental & Ecological Collaboration

Our landscape architects collaborate with our ecological and arboricultural experts to provide integrated mitigation plans and biodiversity enhancement plans linked to BNG, LEMPs, and tree planting strategies, ensuring sustainable and compliant developments.

6. Visualisation & Site Management

To help clients and stakeholders fully envision their projects, our landscape architects create high-quality visuals, including artists’ impressions and photorealistic computer-generated images (CGI). We provide detailed site setting out, inspections, and snagging services, ensuring that every aspect of the landscape architecture design is realised to the highest standard through construction and post-completion phases.
