Design Rooted in Nature.
Think Environmental, Economic, and Social Impact. As system thinkers, we take a holistic design approach to integrating nature and the built environment, cultivating artful, resilient solutions that add value and nurture equitable communities.
Thoughtful placement of promenades and plazas embrace the distinct charm of outdoor spaces while encouraging people to walk, interact, and connect with their surroundings and the waterfront. The Encinal Terminal Master Plan articulates open spaces that generate a sense of community, meticulously crafted to be inclusive, welcoming, and aesthetically pleasing.
