In Addis Ababa, our Landscape Architect agency is strengthening its presence.
In a fast-growing city like Addis Ababa, outdoor space is becoming a real luxury. At Landscape Consulting, we create living spaces, refuges where nature reclaims its rights in the midst of urbanization. Thanks to our expertise as Landscape Architects, we reinvent spaces by providing aesthetic solutions adapted to Ethiopia's unique dynamics.
Each project begins with a meeting between your vision and the tools we use to bring it to life. Our team hand-draws and sketches the first ideas, then defines the landscaping program. Using computer graphics, 3D and videos, we work with you to work out every detail of the exterior (planting zones, types of driveway surfacing, water features, ambient lighting, etc.) before producing the technical plans (earthworks, levelling, irrigation, etc.) to get your dream project off the ground.
Multi-services residence project in Addis Ababa
One of our most recent and ambitious projects in Addis Ababa is the development of a multi-service residence. This project, located in the heart of the city, integrates green spaces into the urban setting. Our team worked closely with Ethiopian architects and urban planners to design the project.
The green zones and open courtyards were designed not only for their aesthetic value, but also to provide natural cooling through the thoughtful placement of trees and shrubs. The project also incorporates water-saving irrigation systems and eco-friendly materials to minimize environmental impact.
Private gardens with relaxation areas and swimming pool
In addition to urban projects, Landscape Consulting also designs private gardens tailored to the needs of villa owners. One of our flagship projects was to create a garden with a swimming pool for a private villa on the outskirts of Addis Ababa.
Our team's brief was to create a secluded, peaceful environment where the owners could escape the hustle and bustle of the city. The design includes natural stone pathways, tropical plants and an elegant pool surrounded by lush greenery. The pool area has been designed for total privacy, with tall trees and shrubs strategically placed to create a true oasis. We also integrated subtle outdoor lighting to make the space pleasant to use in the evening.
How many landscape architects are there in Ethiopia?
Landscape architecture is a booming field in Ethiopia, with an increasing number of professionals joining us every year.

What are the fees for a landscape architect like Landscape Consulting in Addis Ababa?
Fees for landscape architecture services vary according to the complexity and scope of the project. At Landscape Consulting, we offer fees tailored to the specific needs of each client. Our services range from garden design and small-scale projects to complete landscape developments for larger properties. As a general rule, fees for the entire project (studies, consultation with contractors and site supervision) range from 6 to 8% of the cost of the work.
Which materials are best suited to landscaping in Addis Ababa?
Addis Ababa's climate demands durable, easy-to-maintain materials that can withstand the region's varied weather conditions. For paved areas, we often use local stone, which is not only environmentally friendly, but also blends in perfectly with the natural landscape. For planting, native and drought-resistant species are essential to create sustainable landscapes requiring little irrigation.
How long does the average landscaping project take?
The duration of a landscaping project varies according to its size and complexity. Small residential gardens can be completed in a matter of weeks, while larger projects, such as commercial developments, can stretch over several months. At Landscape Consulting, we work closely with our customers to establish precise schedules and ensure that each phase of the project is completed on time and to the highest standards.
