Designing Golf Courses That Respect the Land

Golf heritage is important.  Studying classic courses, how they evolved, and why they endure offers a blueprint for sustainability today. Traditional design principles like minimal earth movement, onsite material use, and natural routing are not just aesthetic preferences, they are practical strategies for reducing impact. Firms like Mackenzie & Ebert have built a global reputation by applying these principles across new builds and restorations, demonstrating how sustainable architecture can be both timeless and scalable.

But there’s a shift happening, and it’s reshaping the future of the game.
