Connecting people and places for more livable and resilient communities 

Cities and communities are facing unprecedented social, environmental, and economic challenges. Overcoming them requires not just the right technical solutions but also whole systems thinking that fosters placemaking, improves economic prosperity, increases environmental resilience and enhances social value, while improving the projects place.  

We provide advice and solutions that improve the built environment at multiple scales – from parks and neighborhoods to communities and entire cities.

Public interest design (PID) can help bring community voices, involvement, and interest to a project. Often, this effort strengthens the design and context of architecture. After all, community is part of a project’s place. We have several team members who specialize in public interest design. Whether it’s community engagement or SEED certification, we have designers on our team who would love to answer your questions or inquiries about PID.
