The Alpine environment represents one of the most sensitive and meaningful contexts for addressing the challenges of sustainable development. Home to around 13 million people and shared by eight European countries, the Alps are among the largest and most complex territories of the continent from a natural, cultural, and economic perspective. With high biodiversity and landscapes shaped by centuries of human-nature interaction, these territories today face increasing pressures from climate change and intensive land use, calling for forward-looking and integrated strategies.

The project stands out as a new international best practice, introducing a radical transformation in the paradigm of logistics hubs and industrial areas. These areas, once seen as closed-off, polluting, and passive, are reimagined as open, permeable, green, self-sufficient, and proactive spaces that actively reduce environmental impact.

Alongside Momentum, LAND developed a study at the request of the Yukon Government for Rabbit’s Foot Canyon, part of the Whitehorse corridor and a key component of the broader Alaska Highway Multi-use Trail Masterplan. This proposal aims not only to improve safety and connectivity across the corridor but also to enhance economic development and tourism opportunities for the territory, aligning with a strategic vision that integrates ecological, social, and cultural values.

This vision transcends infrastructure rehabilitation by proposing a holistic, multi-dimensional approach that fosters coexistence, resilience, and experience within the landscape. This means supporting wildlife movement and biodiversity, enhancing ecosystem resilience especially regarding water systems, and enriching human interaction through accessibility and valorization of the local unique assets.

These include the cultural and natural heritage of the Chasàn Chùa Park, which is vital for the project’s long-term sustainability. By recognizing and respecting this legacy through collaborative governance with Indigenous communities, traditional knowledge will be actively integrated into the development process.

The landscape project for Via Tevere aims to bring people back to the center by creating a dynamic and resilient space—a platform for socialization for students and citizens alike. In line with environmentally conscious design that addresses contemporary challenges, Nature and Water become the project’s structuring elements, capable of providing ecosystem services and creating a sustainable urban environment.

With the development concept for the Schaeffler Campus in Herzogenaurach, a strategic blueprint is emerging for the transformation of industrial sites into productive, climate-active and ecologically high-performing landscapes. LAND Germany is accompanying the site on its path from a functionally driven industrial area to a future-ready corporate campus that understands nature as infrastructure – and as an active part of value creation.
