Setting up my own landing zone on AWS
For my landing zone I used the Customizations for AWS Control Tower (CfCt) project. When I created my landing zone the Landing Zone Accelerator was not yet available. I still need to evaluate if I can switch, but my initial concerns are the cost of running it. CfCt has low costs and depending on your usage it might even fit in the free tier. The Landing Zone Accelerator comes with VPCs and transit gateways and some other services that will generate costs regardless of what you are doing with the landing zone.

Customising AWS Control Tower with CfCT
The team at AWS that have developed the SRA utilised Customisations for Control Tower (CfCT) as the delivery mechanism for there customisations but since they don't maintain that solution itself, it's strongly recommended to check the current version of CfCT here prior to launching the CloudFormation Template.
