HOW WE WORK
We don’t just make designs—we create solutions.
Our team brings a collaborative, hands-on approach, working closely with clients, policymakers, and local communities to ensure each project makes a meaningful and lasting impact. We are passionate about fostering innovation that supports thriving livelihoods, regenerates biodiversity, and enhances ecosystems and society alike. From large-scale restoration projects to smaller efforts like windbreaks or backyard rain gardens, we are committed to real-world solutions. Grounded in trust, respect, and a commitment to quality, our global expertise helps create regenerative landscapes that sustain both people and nature for the long term.
We Accelerate the Process.
Partnering with United Designers means gaining a deep understanding of the land—its resources, needs, and potential. Our team helps shape a clear path forward, aligning your vision with the land’s unique characteristics and possibilities. Explore our designs below to see how ecologically driven solutions can transform landscapes, whether it's a regenerative agriculture project, community garden, or organic farm. We believe the land leaves its mark on us, and in return, we let it guide our approach. Each design prioritizes the land's carrying capacity, ensuring both beauty and functionality are aligned with nature.

UNITED STRENGTH
UNITED TEAMS
Collaboration within diverse teams brings invaluable insight to every project. With the growing complexity of environmental challenges, including shifting climates and unpredictable weather, our approach draws from hands-on experience and proven methods. By bringing together a network of members and associates, we foster a collective wisdom that strengthens our ability to design with integrity and adaptability.
UNITED HERITAGE
From small rural communities to vast landscapes across the globe, we engage with cultures and ecosystems in a way that honours their uniqueness. Our design philosophy is rooted in respect for local knowledge, especially indigenous practices that have sustained communities for generations. We believe in bridging modern techniques with traditional wisdom, ensuring that each project strengthens both ecological health and cultural heritage.
UNITED COMMUNITIES
Our commitment extends beyond delivering designs—we create partnerships. Transparent communication and regular updates ensure that clients are always part of the process. Our community-driven design approach actively involves stakeholders, providing education (when necessary) and guidance to achieve shared goals. By integrating voices at every stage, we cultivate designs that reflect the needs of both the land and the people connected to it.
UNITED CLIMATES
Designing for resilience in a changing climate requires a deep understanding of place. United Designers crafts solutions that are responsive to local conditions while also adaptable to future shifts. By embracing the complexity of each site, we create strategies that ensure long-term ecological balance and provide practical benefits for both land and livelihoods.
BIOMES AND ECOREGIONS
Designing with Biomes and Ecoregions in Mind
Every landscape is shaped by its unique biome and ecoregion, which influence climate, soil, vegetation, and wildlife. By categorizing our projects based on these natural systems, we ensure that each design is deeply attuned to the land’s characteristics and challenges. This approach allows us to combine the expertise of our global network of designers with invaluable local knowledge, ensuring that every project is rooted in the realities of its environment. Whether working in a temperate forest, arid desert, or tropical savannah, we use these ecological markers to guide decisions on plant selection, water management, and land use. This enables us to create regenerative landscapes that are resilient, sustainable, and aligned with local ecosystems, supporting thriving biodiversity and community resilience.
