UmbaCo Landscape Architects is award winning innovative landscape design studio with a focus on sustainable, holistic and expressive design and management solutions.  We passionately believe in the Australian landscape, both natural and cultural, and its re-invigoration through landscape art in a balanced and sustainable way. Our expertise has a broad environmental base from large scale projects and master plans, environmental rehabilitation, through to streetscapes, local parks, playgrounds and residential projects.

Our extensive knowledge of the environment and ecology underscores our approach to schemes from the earliest stage – a holistic approach. We come with a vision which is then tested rigorously to ensure that our scheme exhausted all optimal options. We listen to people, enjoy to be involved on community projects and in particular we love working with children.

Jana Osvald, the director, is a Registered Landscape Architect on a persistent journey to create a significant and lasting contribution to the Australian landscape fabric with a hint of European taste.
