Outsourcing landscape architecture services to the Philippines with Offshored provides a strategic advantage for Australian firms seeking high-quality outputs, reduced operational costs, and skilled landscape architect talent aligned to Western standards.

We recruit professionals who hold relevant architectural degrees and strong drafting experience, but they are generally not licensed architects—especially when working for overseas clients.
