Designing confidence into every landscape

Great projects don’t happen by chance. They are shaped by creative thinking, technical expertise and a clear understanding of how design becomes reality. MaDE (Marshalls Design & Engineering) is our in-house team of specialists who work alongside you to design, engineer and specify hard landscaping schemes.

Combining design expertise, engineering knowledge and technical assurance, we help you overcome complexity, reduce risk and deliver with confidence. Whether the priority is buildability, design intent or long-term performance, we solve challenges early, before they become problems on site.

Speak to the MaDE team

From design to delivery

MaDE is a dedicated team of design and engineering specialists you can bring into your project. We support clients, consultants and contractors throughout the project lifecycle, working alongside landscape architects, engineers and project teams to turn ideas into practical, deliverable solutions.

From concept development and specification through to delivery, we help you resolve technical challenges, protect design intent and achieve better project outcomes. Backed by decades of experience across complex public realm and urban projects, MaDE enables you to make informed decisions and deliver landscapes that perform as intended.

How MaDE can help

Practical design, engineering and specification support. Where and when you need it most.

Pavement solutions

Working as part of your project team, our expertise in pavement design helps create spaces that perform beautifully, look exceptional and deliver long-term value. By challenging unnecessary or over-engineered specifications, we help you reduce cost, programme and embodied carbon, without compromising design intent.

From permeable paving to traditional solutions, our bespoke, fully warranted designs go beyond standard approaches, delivering smarter, more efficient outcomes tailored to your project.

Our specialist capabilities include:

Pavement engineering
SuDS design

Discuss your pavement design

Pavement engineering

Fully warranted and bespoke pavement design solutions tailored to project requirements, along with design guidance, support and specification advice.

SuDS design

Tailored SuDS assessment and permeable design based on local rainfall behaviour, with system selection based on ground permeability characteristic. Balancing structural load with hydraulic performance.

Bespoke product

Some projects require a more collaborative, bespoke approach. Our design and engineering specialists work closely with you to develop bespoke natural stone features, customised street furniture and integrated solutions that bring ambitious ideas to life.

Combining material expertise, manufacturing knowledge and practical buildability, we create features that are as achievable as they are inspiring. Where projects require discreet hostile vehicle mitigation, protection can be seamlessly engineered into the design without compromising aesthetics.

Bespoke street furniture

Customised and fully bespoke street furniture solutions, with engineering design, modelling and cost management. Including component scheduling and build sequencing as well as product rendering and visualisation.

Hostile vehicle mitigation

Project assessment and regulatory guidance with project-specific sizing and positioning of HVM protection applicable to standard street furniture and landscape features. We cover engineering design, modelling and cost management.

Bespoke natural stone

Bespoke natural stone feature design and 3D modelling along with material suitability assessments and technical guidance. We then analyse the fit, finish and buildability whilst also providing component design, scheduling and detailing.

Connected digital

As part of our design service, we use advanced digital tools to help you visualise, refine and realise your projects through advanced digital design tools. From photo-realistic renderings to immersive animated flythroughs, we transform concepts into compelling visual experiences that build confidence and support decision-making.

Our extensive BIM library and collaborative modelling capabilities enable seamless integration into project workflows, helping teams work smarter, coordinate more effectively and bring designs to life with greater certainty
