About Danu
The systems of our civilisation must evolve to meet the challenges of a changing world.
Danu focusses on designing responses that are resilient, efficient, and regenerative, creating enduring value in an increasingly unpredictable landscape.
Our Vision
Danu provides objective, value-driven advice that prepares your projects for tomorrow's challenges. We have an integral approach to resilience and efficiency, viewing all technical disciplines, user experiences, and operational impacts as parts of one interconnected system. This perspective allows us to:
Identify opportunities that others miss
Create solutions that deliver multiple benefits
Improve resilience in the face of extreme weather and resource constraints
Transform challenges into opportunities for renewal
Our Approach
Drawing on over 27 years of global experience, Danu’s founder, Nicholas Lander, brings a multidisciplinary perspective to every project. He is a chartered engineer, permaculture designer, and has a Master’s in Sustainable Development. He has held leadership roles in sustainability and resilience for major projects; conducted climate risk assessments and adaptation plans for asset owners, government agencies and vulnerable communities; he has project managed planning and design teams; and saved clients money by integrating regenerative green-blue infrastructure solutions that enhance natural systems.
His diverse experience enables him to communicate across technical disciplines, identify synergies between traditionally separate fields, and develop practical responses that address complex challenges.
