What YEWO LANDSCAPES does

YEWO LANDSCAPES GmbH is a Vienna-based landscape architecture firm founded in 2009 by Dominik Scheuch, operating as a privately held Austrian limited liability company with a Swiss branch entity (CHE-197.400.450). The firm delivers landscape architecture, urbanism, climate resilience planning, design & graphics, and BIM (Building Information Modeling) coordination services to public sector clients (municipalities, hospitals, government institutions), private residential developers, and corporate clients across Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Croatia, France, Hungary, and Slovenia. Notable engagements include Stadtsee Horn (public bathing lake, drinking-water-grade filtration), Zentrum Bad Vöslau (25,900 m² climate-resilient city center), Lili am See in Seestadt Aspern (7,500 m² competition 1st prize), ŠKODA AUTO headquarters garden, and Landeskrankenhaus Graz psychiatric ward.

The firm's core technology is a BIM-based project execution environment in which YEWO serves as BIM-Fachkoordinator (BIM specialist coordinator), modeling terrain and outdoor areas in 3D BIM-compatible software and exchanging project data with partners in native authoring formats and the manufacturer-neutral IFC open standard. The team comprises colleagues from 12 countries and includes specialists across architecture, urban planning, spatial planning, civil engineering, and landscape architecture, supplemented by two freelance collaborators.

YEWO operates on a professional services, project-based revenue model, generating income through planning fees, competition prizes, and direct client commissions for projects ranging from small-scale garden architecture to large urban development areas. Distribution is sales-led: projects are acquired primarily via architectural and urban planning competitions (Wettbewerb)—either independently or in partnership with firms such as KCAP Architects & Planners, SUPERBLOCK, F+P Architekten, and querkraft—and through direct commissions from public and private clients. Marketing relies on the firm's project portfolio (yewo.at), LinkedIn/Instagram/Facebook channels, conference participation (urbanize! Festival, Architekturtage, ÖGLA Jung), earned media (Der Standard, Icomos), and a university teaching program (TU Wien, TU Graz, BOKU, FH Campus Wien) under the YEWO LAB knowledge-transfer initiative. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; the firm carries no outside investment, with control concentrated in the founding partner.
