THE DRAWING BOARD We meet renowned landscape architect, Elizabeth Staveley, owner of LandARC, who’s marrying sustainability with culture, environment and architecture, here in Cornwall.
W
ith Elizabeth’s clients including members of a world famous Irish rock band, a French fashion house and VIP stakeholders including members of the Royal family you could be forgiven for being somewhat in awe of practice director Elizabeth – but on meeting her, she is nothing but passionate about her art and her clients’ needs and she aims to add value to every project that comes her way.
Brought up in Cornwall, Elizabeth was fortunate to start her journey at Bosvigo House in Truro. With a professional horticultural advisor for a father and an artist for a mother it was no wonder that Elizabeth went on to study a combination of the two. A degree in landscape architecture at Greenwich University with international masterclasses in The Netherlands and Moscow was followed by postgraduate ualifi ations in heltenha and seven years later, she became chartered.
