"The technical goal of the project was to address a steeply sloping bank in an attractive manner and to use a product that would be reflective of Nova Scotia's existing natural rock outcrops. We looked at several different retaining wall materials, but Rosetta products caught our eye," said Landscape Architect James McKee. Other products shown: Outcropping

LUC was appointed initially by The Crown Estate in 1996 to investigate the significance and feasibility of restoring The Water Gardens at Bushy Park in West London. Subsequently LUC was retained by a local Trust and later by The Royal Parks to provide a faithful interpretation of the original 1710 Gardens, made safe and accessible for 21st century public enjoyment.
The Water Gardens were created as a series of formal pools in a landscaped setting by the Duke of Halifax in 1710, but their shape and condition had been significantly altered following a variety of occupants and uses over time.
The challenge here was to re-establish a symmetrical layout of ponds and cascade — which had certainly existed — where there was disorder, erosion, invasion of vegetation and severed water supply. This involved extensive historical research, field archaeology and interpretation and ecological investigation. Careful design, challenging discussion and technical construction were necessary to achieve a suitable fit — faithful, respectful and pragmatic — with limited funds.
The Water Gardens stretch across the north-west part of Bushy Park. They use water from the Longford River — an artificial river which was constructed to supply the fountains and basins at Hampton Court. The restoration has returned the ponds to their original shapes (octagonal and clover-leaf), reconstituted the five tier cascade and alcove walls, and provided landform, footpaths, a bridge crossing to the nearby 1710 Brewhouse, seeding, planting and interpretive signage. Most important of all, it has re-established the water supply system from the Longford.
The restored gardens were opened for public access for the first time in Autumn 2009.

LUC is the masterplanner and landscape architect responsible for this new hospital outside Enniskillen. This is an immensely complex project, integrating extensive development into a sensitive context with environmental impacts minimised.
LUC worked closely with team members and the client brief to produce the site masterplan and detailed landscape proposals. This process involves incorporating the numerous and complex needs of a hospital; ensuring site legibility for patients, visitors and staff; addressing therapeutic and environmental considerations within this area of natural beauty and a tight planning framework.
The quantity of design information required by the Hospital Trust was unprecedented, including design to RIBA Stage E, full detailed planning application and EIA. The enormously complex functional and spatial interdependencies of a hospital extend to the site plan (circulation, parking, security, drainage, landscape, approach road and ecology were all part of LUC’s remit). Ground conditions on site are very poor, requiring complex remediation and full integration between civil and landscape design.
Closer to the building, LUC is responsible for the design of the 400m long Linear Gardens — a birch woodland which forms the spine of the hospital. The project also involves the ‘re-wetting’ of wetlands using all surface water run-off from roofs and hard surfaces filtered through a series of pools before discharge into an adjacent lake. Other sustainable solutions include the extensive use of locally grown local flora, the use of local natural hard materials, the creation of extensive species rich meadows, integrated arts such as land art and living willow sculpture and the intended involvement of the local community as part of an educational outreach programme.
The resultant site plan was a masterpiece in binding these potentially disparate elements into workable and attractive environment.
The scheme was completed on time and to budget and opened by HRH The Queen in July 2012. It has proved immensely successful with the NHS, staff, patients and visitors.
The RIBA President has described it as a benchmark for european hospitals.

Working in collaboration with Eric Parry Architects and Latz + Partner, LUC was selected by Saxon Generali Real Estate to design a roof garden at One Fen Court, a new 17-storey mixed-use development at the heart of the City cluster in the City of London.
LUC’s services included planting design, pre-selection and specification, planning and inspection to deliver the soft landscape for the building’s 2,200m2 rooftop terrace. The garden, which is fully accessible to the public, sits 65m above street level and offers 360o views across London’s skyline.
The roof garden is designed to include all the best aspects of a public space whilst integrating building services and energy efficiency requirements. It provides a refreshingly tranquil escape from the dense City cluster and streets below. Our scheme sensitively combines seasonal herbaceous planting with exposure-tolerant and evergreen grasses, vines and espalier fruit. Its centrepiece is a grove of 88 wisteria supported on a pergola, providing shade, scent and shelter to the roof terrace.
As the visitor moves around the garden the quality of light changes with the aspect and the time of day and season. Moving water on the southern edge of the roof provides relief during warm spells.
“It’s gone beyond our expectations, simply because it has a wow factor that we were hoping for but we didn’t dare dream of.” Tina Paillet, Senior Executive at Generali Real Estate
