Built Environment

We care passionately about the natural and built environment, striving for beauty, function and sustainability in all settings and at every scale.

Built Environment Overview

The environment in which we live faces increasingly complex global challenges, with climate change, economic constraints and a biodiversity crisis shaping the context of natural and built environment projects. Within the SLR family, we respond to these environmental challenges with enthusiasm and innovation, to help our clients meet these challenges head on.

Our experience tells us that the smallest of projects can have a big impact, while even the largest strategies require a detailed understanding of delivery. Our team is shaped to provide outstanding advice from assessment and evaluation of sites, through to delivering transformational physical change; applying our deep understanding of the planning, design and development process to achieve successful outcomes.

Our collaboration across disciplines leaves us in the ideal situation to unlock development, create value and bring forward truly sustainable places that benefit wider society and ensure we're Making Sustainability Happen.
