Nathan Merlano

He has played a key role in contributing to large-scale public spaces, open space networks, community parklands, and creek system strategies. Recent projects like the Victoria Park Vision, Urban Forest Tower, Western Sydney Airport, and the Box Hill Master Plan showcase his expertise and leadership through ecologically-informed design, remedial strategies, climate adaptation, and regenerative urbanism.

Nathan's dedication extends beyond the studio. His deep passion for landscape architecture is fueled by his love for exploring the great outdoors.These often far-flung adventures translate into a personal and responsible design approach, evident in his published article with Landscape Architecture Australia on the impacts of glacial climate change in Argentina's mountainous landscapes. His academic achievements were recognized with Honours from the Queensland University of Technology (QUT), where his design excellence is further complimented by his proficiency in 3D modelling and the creation of high-quality graphic outputs, bridging the gap between vision and reality.
