Turquoise are winners of the Landscape Institute ‘Excellence in Tackling Climate Change’ award in partnership with Cookson & Tickner for market research conducted for the National Trust Killerton Spatial & Audience Development Plan.

"We are very proud that our research has contributed to such an important piece of work which I believe will positively impact the local environment and population for decades to come."

- Mark Harvey, Joint MD at Turquoise

The project
The vision is for Killerton to reimagine the entire estate to create a functioning landscape and community relevant for the 21st Century. This vision is to be delivered over the next 30-50 years, but it is imperative that action is taken over the next 10 years to address the climate and nature crises.

The plan
The plan looks to welcome a wide range of new and existing communities and find diverse ways for everyone to feel part of this place. Turquoise recruited, moderated and analysed the audience development focus groups to capture visitor sentiment and future desires around how they wished to interact with the estate's rich ecosystem, wildlife and landscapes.

The ceremony
The awards celebrated the exceptional contribution of landscape designers, managers, planners, researchers, and local authorities across the world towards levelling up and creating a better place to live.
