Our services
LVIAs, Masterplanning, Urban Design & Heritage Landscapes
Building on Nicholsons’ multidisciplinary foundation, our team also offers specialist expertise in Landscape and Visual Impact Assessments (LVIAs), masterplanning and urban design, and the conservation and enhancement of heritage landscapes. Working across Oxfordshire, the Cotswolds, Buckinghamshire, Northamptonshire and the wider South East and Midlands, we provide rigorous landscape analysis and creative strategic thinking that support both sensitive development and informed decision‑making.
