We work with forward-thinking clients in the process of reimaging the potential of their places. 

Our Process

We are collaborative and agile – our process adapts to meet your project’s unique needs. We may follow this sequential framework, or focus tightly on a single step.


1 Discovery

Rigorous Curiosity

We immerse ourselves in the project context to understand the deep character of a place. That allows us to identify latent opportunities for new value – civic, social, financial, and cultural.

2 Design

Vision with Integrity

We deliver clear, imaginative, and welcoming spatial design and character plans for buildings, blocks, neighborhoods and public spaces.

3 Activation

A Bias for Action

Place is meaningful for its history, identity, and lived experience as much as its built form. We design and implement programs, cultural catalysts, technologies, and activation strategies that bring places to life.
