Full circle design.

Our practice is full circle-often starting in planning and ending in built projects. The experience of bringing ideas to life means we know when the creative muscles should shift gears from iterative explorations to the grounded innovation needed for quality-built landscapes.

Practice intuition. Our practice is grounded in learning by doing, realizing new opportunities by paying attention to what happens and finding inspiration in unexpected results. Our ideas evolve through an ongoing practice of building and reflection which strengthens our intuition. We work on all kinds of projects including adaptive reuse, ecological restoration, reimagining work-place environments, trails, transit-oriented development, and planning.

A collaborative practice.

This starts with our community inside the office. We tinker with how we communicate and encourage individual voices. We consider the firm a living entity which changes with people, projects, and current events.

Our Services

Our design happens in real life and through the efforts and talents of real people. We appreciate ecology, plants, real materials, and things which are low tech. Our goal is to let built projects speak for themselves.
