We are urban designers who believe that the physical environment helps shape a community's functional, economic and social well-being. The art of "collage" is the creative practice of assembling diverse elements into a dynamic composition, often from multiple perspectives. We view communities in the same, organic way - as they change and grow, their built environment reflects the unique circumstances of its politics and place. Our work is varied in scale - from individual Buildings & Sites to the institutional frameworks of Schools & Campuses; from focused Neighborhoods & Districts to regional networks of Corridors & Centers, and even entire Cities & Towns.
Since the firm's founding in 1997 in Atlanta, we have completed over 200 projects throughout the Southeast and, as a testament to the determination and passion of our clients, our plans have resulted in thousands of new housing units, first class schools and institutions, hundreds of acres of new parks and open spaces, miles of streetscape and bicycle paths and, most importantly, the creation of dozens of memorable places. The whole of a vibrant community is often greater than the sum of its parts. Therein lies the key to true urban design.
