Urban Design & Planning
Innovative Solutions for Urban Spaces
Urban areas present unique challenges. Dense building networks, limited green space, and high-traffic corridors demand creative solutions to optimize land use. We address these challenges by using adaptive techniques like reusing existing materials, installing permeable paving, and incorporating low-maintenance plantings.
Our expertise in urban design includes:
- Pocket Parks: Transforming underutilized parcels into green spaces that benefit both the environment and the community.
- Urban Plazas: Designing civic spaces with integrated hardscapes, custom furnishings, and plantings that celebrate local identity.
- Complete Streets: Multi-modal corridors that balance vehicular, bicycle, and pedestrian traffic while prioritizing safety and accessibility.
- Sustainable Infrastructure: Incorporating bioswales, rain gardens, and green roofs to manage stormwater and promote ecological health.
- Streetscape Enhancements: Upgrading corridors with lighting, ADA-compliant walkways, and vegetative buffers to improve both function and aesthetics.
