Transforming the public realm into exciting places to live, work, and visit.

We recognize that building vibrant neighborhoods, revitalizing downtown corridors, and developing lively urban places requires a great user experience that blends smart design and planning, active retail, walkability, outdoor amenities, intriguing programming, and a carefully deployed management and operations plan.

By working with our clients during any phase of their development project, from pre-development and master planning through design, implementation, and site operations, we layer techniques and strategies that blend retail spill-out and programming with pedestrian flow to create enlivened public realms and thriving commerce hubs. This approach turns our client’s ground-level assets and public spaces into key economic drivers that increase their property’s asset value. Our ideas and concepts aren’t just best-use studies; they are pragmatic and actionable solutions proven to work in the real-world.
