  • “NVA has worked in partnership with erz for many years to produce hugely challenging, highly innovative and fabulously successful public art projects including The Hidden Gardens and Kilmahew/St Peters.  Our working relationship has evolved through a level of professionalism, resolve and consideration that is outstanding.  Their skills and passion for their work are commendable and their depth of understanding and creativity in public engagement is exceptional.  Other words that come to mind; energy, integrity and commitment.”

  • “Over several years we have been involved with Scottish based landscape architects ERZ in a master planning process for an area of the garden at Inverleith that has in recent years seen a significant increase in visitors and has become more heavily used by a wide range of groups ranging from school to community groups. This master planning process and engaging with ERZ has ensured that all the differing and varying requirements of a wide range of stakeholders has been taken into account during the planning and design process.”

  • “Whenever we think of doing work that requires the input of a landscape architect we are drawn back to erz. Why? Because they are capable of thinking big, but also fully committing to local dialogue. They are not scared to fight for what good landscape architecture brings to a design and make sure that adequate budgets that often get squeezed remain essential to progress best practice on any scale. They are driven by belief and intellectual clarity as well as the need for affordability and will work hard with you as the client to maximise the impact and integrity that comes with every pound spent.”

    Angus Farquhar, Creative Director, NVA

  • “We have been delighted with the creativity, professionalism, and commitment that the ERZ team has brought to our landscape projects.  From early design planning through to contract completion the ERZ team are the ideal project partners, and a pleasure for our colleagues and customers to work alongside.”

    Gerry Lindsay, Managing Director, Hansel

  • “I am pleased to offer a testimonial to ERZ who helped steered us through complex negotiations, design and delivery of a community growing space, wild flower meadow and an innovative gym wall at Possilpark Health and Social Care Centre. Throughout the process the team offered a solution based approach in a professional and un-daunting manner.  The complexity of the programme involved a wide range of partners and interests and retro fitting the above centre with the a number of innovative community assets.  Each aspect of the programme has delivered a high quality product and in particular I believe the Gym Wall is a cutting edge design and much needed facility for community use.  I am pleased to offer my support to ERZ and would be pleased to engage them in any future programmes.”
