Commonwealth approaches
each landscape project with an appreciation of the cultural history of setting
and an understanding that is drawn from extensive research, both on site
and from archives. This approach allows us to develop and execute a comprehensive
vision for a particular site.Our
services include the initial inventory of plant materials and history of
a site through to detailed designs and construction drawings. All are historically
informed, right down to plant materials, site furnishings, and fences, which
may be typical of an earlier time. As well, we provide conservation guidelines
and strategies for cemeteries and other historic landscapes.Commonwealth
also offers planning and design services for 
botanic gardens. At the Queen Elizabeth II Botanic Park on Grand Cayman,
we placed a primary emphasis on the botanic and cultural heritage of the
Cayman Islands, within the context of tropical ecosystems, while also including
a stunning display garden that broadened the market for
this important attraction.
