Our portfolio spans from small-scale community improvements to large-scale master planning initiatives.

Yes, we work with a wide variety of clients including municipal governments, private developers, real estate firms, community organizations, educational institutions, and non-profit organizations. Our experience spans both public sector planning initiatives and private development projects, allowing us to navigate complex regulatory environments effectively.

Our design process follows these key phases:

• Discovery & Research: Site analysis, stakeholder interviews, and data collection
• Concept Development: Initial design concepts and visioning workshops
• Design Development: Refined designs with technical specifications
• Documentation: Final drawings, reports, and implementation guidelines
• Implementation Support: Ongoing consultation during construction and development

Throughout each phase, we maintain close collaboration with clients and stakeholders.

Project timelines vary significantly based on scope and complexity. A small public space design might take 3-6 months, while comprehensive master plans can take 12-24 months or longer. Factors affecting timeline include project size, regulatory requirements, community engagement needs, and client review processes. We provide detailed timelines during our initial consultation.

We offer flexible fee structures to accommodate different project types and client needs. Common arrangements include fixed fees for defined scopes, hourly rates for consulting services, percentage of construction cost for larger developments, and retainer agreements for ongoing planning support. During our initial consultation, we'll discuss the most appropriate fee structure for your specific project.

To make our first meeting productive, please gather any existing site information such as surveys, zoning documents, previous studies, or environmental reports. Prepare your vision, goals, and any budget parameters. If available, bring photographs, site maps, or examples of design preferences. Understanding your timeline expectations and key stakeholders will also help us provide more accurate initial guidance.
