SLA
We design places for life. All life. SLA is an internationally renowned nature-based design studio. For 30 years, we have designed some of the most notable public spaces and masterplans in the world. Our work solves the biggest challenges facing our Earth today: From climate crisis and biological mass extinction to social inequality and the growing gap between humans and nature. WE HELP PEOPLE, CITIES, AND NATURE We design cities, public space, and nature on all scales: From city-wide masterplans to neighborhood pocket parks. From national biodiversity strategies to local citizens’ engagement processes. In all our projects we deliver world-class and pioneering nature-based design solutions to the benefit of people, clients, cities, businesses, governments – and nature itself. A HUB OF CREATIVITY AND SCIENCE We are an interdisciplinary collective of people working within the trinity of nature, people, and design. Together, we consist of three offices, more than 15 nationalities, and 130 landscape architects, biologists, anthropologists, city planners, lighting designers, microclimate specialists, architects, planting experts, urban designers, ecologists, PhDs, safety experts, and forest engineers. OUR APPROACH We believe in a distinctly interdisciplinary and collaborative approach to making livable and sustainable places. We combine deep anthropological knowledge and rigorous biological research with award-winning design expertise and high artistic ambitions. As our client and collaborator, we bring you along on our journey and invite you to join our mission, challenge our thinking, and expand our horizons. Together we learn, together we grow, and together we create the best possible places for life. The results are poetic and sensuous projects that solve today’s biggest urban challenges, provide unique value for our clients, create genuine life quality for all, and put all things living – people, cities, animals, and plants – first.
