Laura Bradley

Laura is Director and Co-founder of Bradley Murphy Design (BMD) and a Chartered Landscape Architect with over 19 years’ experience in designing and delivering award-winning residential, urban regeneration, and mixed-use projects. Laura started her career in garden design and horticulture before moving into Landscape Architecture. Laura co-founded BMD in 2011, and BMD has gone on to work on some of the UK’s largest planned settlements and strategic development sites. BMD has built a wealth of knowledge in how to approach design and implement green infrastructure at a strategic scale, optimising landscape and building in biodiversity as an integral part of the design process.

The creation of green spaces that foster inclusivity and access for all is a key driver in Laura’s design ethos. Aligned to this is Laura’s advocacy for community participation and stakeholder engagement in the shaping of new communities. Laura and the BMD team continue to work with some of the country’s most prominent developers, delivering distinctive design solutions that are underpinned by a big-picture, landscape-led approach. Laura is also currently working with the UK Government’s Future Homes Hub on their Placemaking Oversight Group. She is proud to be reselected to the Design Council’s Expert Network for a second term.
