Working With Us

Proven and Local Experience, Broad and Deep Expertise

While we may be known for housing, we are experts in numerous fields — inclusive engagement, land use, long-range planning, sustainability and resiliency planning, and community design. We know cookie-cutter approaches don’t work—we respond specifically and flexibly to each project to root it in local realities. Our extensive experience working with diverse communities is applied to every project.

Meaningful Engagement, Consistent Collaboration

We know the process is just as important as the outcome. We are seasoned facilitators, listeners, and communicators who excel at inclusive, participatory planning and at navigating complex collaborative processes. By collaborating closely with staff and community members we ensure that planning efforts support community-building as well as the development of responsive and responsible solutions.

Focused Outcomes

We keep our focus on delivering outcomes that matter to communities, avoiding endless studies and non-productive data-holes that distract from getting things done. We listen to what’s needed and respond, shifting gears, redirecting, and adjusting scopes quickly to make sure we remain focused on what’s most important as situations and needs evolve.
