ABOUT US
Erika Skabar Landscape Planning and Design develops landscape projects that integrate ecological processes, infrastructure, and public space.
Each project responds to complex environmental and social dynamics with clarity, coherence, and long-term vision.
What we do
Erika Skabar Landscape Planning and Design operates at the intersection of ecology, landscape architecture, and territorial planning—engaging with systems that evolve over time and across scales. The practice focuses on anticipating what is not yet visible: shifts in climate, ecological thresholds, social dynamics, and material flows.
Today’s challenges are systemic and interconnected. Climate change, biodiversity loss, water scarcity, land degradation, and social inequalities converge in the very spaces we design and inhabit. Addressing them requires integrated thinking, long-term vision, and collaboration across disciplines.
Erika Skabar Landscape Planning and Design is built on a strong understanding of the relationships between natural and human systems. This knowledge informs every stage of our work—from strategic planning and land reuse to public space design and infrastructure integration.
Landscape is where global pressures become tangible. It is also where spatial, ecological, and cultural solutions can take form. Landscape approaches offer frameworks for land management that balance environmental priorities with productive functions and social value—especially in contexts where coexistence between people, ecosystems, and infrastructure is essential.
With the 2030 climate and biodiversity targets approaching, the urgency for coordinated, future-oriented action is clear. Erika Skabar Landscape Planning and Design contributes to this transition by combining technical expertise, cross-sectoral project experience, and a strong design sensibility.
The team has long-standing experience in managing diverse and complex projects—from masterplans to executive-level design—offering consistent guidance throughout the entire process, including support for long-term green infrastructure and open space management.
The portfolio includes work across multiple sectors:
All activities are structured to support full project implementation—from concept and masterplan through to detailed technical design and site management—ensuring consistency and depth at every phase.
