OVERLANT landscapes

What OVERLANT landscapes does

OVERLANT landscapes is a Belgian landscape architecture and garden design firm founded in 2019, operating from an operational office in Leuven with a registered seat in Diest (VAT BE0735.727.578). The firm is staffed by a five-person team — Christophe Eraly, Kenny Vandepoel, Anna Cavallero, and Jasper Foré, plus one additional member — and works across the entire scale spectrum from regional masterplans and urban renewal strategies to private garden design.

The firm positions itself around a nature-based design philosophy that combines hard science and engineering with design craftsmanship, producing resilient landscapes that buffer water, moderate heat, and support biodiversity. Its service portfolio spans seven named offerings: Landscape Architecture, Healthy Environments, Planning and Strategy, Imaginative Narrative, Climate and Biodiversity, Private Outdoor Space, and Community Support & Participatory Design. Core methodologies include participatory design processes, visual storytelling via sketches and imagery, and integration with mobility, hydro-geological, and engineering consultants. The firm has no proprietary software product, no public API, and no app — its output is delivered as traditional professional services through commissions and public tenders.

OVERLANT earns revenue through project-based professional services engagements acquired via direct commissions and competitive tenders. The client base is concentrated in the Belgian and Dutch public sector, including municipal governments (Leuven, Zonhoven, Aarschot, Lommel, Peer), provincial governments (Antwerpen, Limburg), regional landscape organizations, a hospital (ZOL Genk), educational institutions, and select private developers. The firm operates a consortium bidding model with recurring partners including BULK architecten, PLOT mobiliteitsbureau, NU architectuuratelier, and PT Architecten, and participates in research-led bids with TU Delft and the Flemish Department of Environment. Marketing is conducted through a Squarespace-hosted website and organic social channels (LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram) with no paid acquisition or sales team disclosed.
