Topiaris is a landscape architecture firm founded in 1986 by four colleagues from the Technical University of Lisbon. Of this original group of partners, Teresa Barão and Luís Ribeiro remain and since joined by Catarina Viana in 1995. Over two decades, Topiaris has sustained significant but steady growth while completing a considerable and significant number of projects in Portugal, with a well-established international presence particularly in Angola and Cape Verde and currently setting up partnerships to extend its operational scope to Mozambique, East Timor, Algeria, and various countries across Central and Eastern Europe.The project team is now made up of eleven landscape architects who, sharing fundamental ethical and moral values, strive daily to attain the highest standards in territorial planning and construction, re-qualification and the safeguarding of landscapes, combining their creative capacities with technically robust solutions. Team members contribute with their ideas and references towards a collective workplace discourse defined by conceptual planning rooted in the respective locations and their communities, searching for identities built between the utopian and the rational, in emotional bonds and multicultural dialogues and system sustainability, within a perspective of preserving and conveying essential values—both natural and cultural—to future generations.
