Three decades of landscape thinking.
LARK provides consultancy services in landscape architecture and urban design. The practice was founded in 1994 and has delivered more than a thousand projects across Australia — from single residential courtyards to whole-of-town master plans.
The studio is led by Director Gerard Canavan, supported by two CAD technicians and assistants. We're deliberately small — small enough that the person you brief is the person who draws your project.
We are a design-only practice. We don't build and we don't landscape. We produce the drawings, guidelines and design intent, and hand them to the best contractors and landscapers to deliver.
What guides the work.
Broad understanding
We bring considerable experience to every project — no site is too big, none too small to deserve real thought.
Innovative approaches
Landscape design, water management and plant establishment tuned to a range of climatic zones across Australia.
Collaboration
We work inside project teams — with clients, consultants and end users — to make documentation that fits the brief.
Design excellence
We strive for design excellence and quality of service on every project, at every scale.
