Landscape Middle East - June 2026

I dette nummeret

There is a particular energy that comes with new beginnings. Across this issue of Landscape Middle East, that sense of momentum appears again and again. New communities are being launched, new residential destinations are taking shape, emerging design practices are establishing themselves across the region, and innovative approaches to design, technology, and delivery continue to reshape how landscapes are conceived and realised. What is perhaps most striking is the confidence behind these investments. From large-scale masterplans and residential communities to public art installations and specialist technical services, the projects and people featured in this issue share a common characteristic: they are looking forward. They are focused not simply on responding to today’s challenges, but on creating environments capable of delivering value, wellbeing, resilience, and meaningful experiences for years to come. At the same time, our contributors explore the systems and ideas that support successful landscapes beyond opening day. From adaptive digital design tools and smarter irrigation strategies to evolving delivery models and technical innovation, the profession continues to expand its capabilities while remaining focused on its core purpose: creating places that improve people’s lives. As always, landscape architecture sits at the intersection of nature, technology, culture, and community. The projects featured this month remind us that while design trends may evolve, the ambition remains the same—to create places that people value, remember, and want to be part of.
