At Orterra, we create thoughtful, practical landscapes for education and commercial projects across Queensland. Our work focuses on designing outdoor spaces that are not only visually engaging, but also highly functional, durable, and designed around the people who use them every day. From schools and childcare centres through to commercial developments, infrastructure projects, and community spaces, we help clients create places people genuinely enjoy spending time in.

In education settings, we specialise in outdoor learning environments, nature play, playgrounds, school masterplanning, and green infrastructure. We work closely with schools to understand how students, teachers, and the wider community use their spaces, creating landscapes that support play, wellbeing, learning, biodiversity, and connection to nature. Our projects often transform underused or challenging areas into vibrant spaces that encourage creativity, movement, social connection, and outdoor learning opportunities.

Our commercial and infrastructure work includes streetscapes, public realm projects, subdivisions, drainage corridors, parks, and commercial developments. We collaborate with developers, councils, consultants, and project teams to deliver landscapes that balance aesthetics, functionality, maintenance, compliance, and long term performance. Whether it is improving streetscapes, integrating biodiversity outcomes, or creating welcoming arrival experiences, we believe landscape architecture should add real value to projects and communities.

At the heart of every project is a strong focus on collaboration, practical problem solving, and creating landscapes that are tailored to each client and site. We pride ourselves on delivering designs that feel considered, buildable, and connected to the people who will use them for years to come.
