Faldo Design Scope of Services

We approach each project with the following detailed design methodology.

Site Analysis

Preparation of a Preliminary Golf Course Routing Plan

In consultation with the client and project team members, we undertake a thorough analysis of the site, assessing all information pertinent to design and construction including topography, water resources, environmental considerations, and other geophysical characteristics.

Design Development

Creation of a Golf Course Masterplan/Scheme Design

Design philosophies including variety in length and balance of shot values are assimilated with the aesthetic qualities of the site to produce golf holes of quality, character and natural beauty. Completed scheme designs depict all key features of the course and include style proposals for bunkering and landscape. A detailed colour rendering and a course strategy plan may be produced for marketing purposes.

Detailed Construction Documents

Development of a comprehensive set of plans and specifications collectively form the full information set required to construct the various golf course elements. From initial concept development through to detailed architectural design, we provide our clients with the means to plan, quantify and build their golf courses to the highest internationally recognised standards.

Golf Course Construction Monitoring

During golf course construction, the Faldo Design team makes site visits to periodically monitor the implementation of the design drawings and construction specifications and works with the appointed construction team to ensure the project is completed to the highest quality.

Case Study

Emirates Club, The Faldo Course – Dubai, United Arab Emirates

Course Highlights:

A naturally rugged and dramatic desert-style golf course
Par 73 / 7348 yards

Environment/Sustainability:

A primary goal of the full course remodel was to make better use of the natural dry river bed that runs across the entire site and develop a more natural, uneven riverside character
Significant reduction in water consumption and transition to a drought-tolerant grass species enabled the course to become GEO Certified®
