Martha Schwartz Partners (MSP) creates artistic, functional, and sustainable landscape designs. Our work addresses the impacts of climate change, and provides for happy, healthy communities. We design and implement creative landscape solutions for plazas, parks, institutions and corporate headquarters as well as large-scale masterplans and urban regeneration projects. Our expertise allows us to nurture communities and the environment in spaces where humanity and nature can be in balance. By appreciating how landscapes and communities impact on each other, we create sustainable spaces which people enjoy, and which also encourage biodiversity and protect the planet. With offices in London, New York and Shanghai, MSP creates artistic landscape designs for projects in over 40 countries. MSP’s nature-based approach encourages city leaders, planners and engineers to appreciate how the public landscape can deliver environmental, economic and social sustainability. We are involved in academic research to continually improve our understanding of how we can protect and regenerate natural ecosystems to mitigate the impacts of climate change. Hailing from all over the globe, our diverse team of landscape architects, urban planners, horticulturalists and project managers works successfully across all scales and cultures, including the most challenging urban and social contexts.
