Institutional Development
Content and character are essential to the evolution of a site. Through characterizing the needs, uses, and inherent aspects of the land, a set of criteria can be developed that evoke purposeful design. Refining these concepts will, in turn, result in a site that accommodates functional, aesthetic, cultural and economic aspects as well as maintaining the environmental viability of the land.

An environmentally sensitive approach to design entails understanding the relationships between natural systems, the built environment, infrastructure and the human user. Whether urban or rural development, the balance between maximizing land use and maintaining a green infrastructure is paramount. Site analysis and and program development allow for the creation of design guidelines which expand the opportunities for functional and sustainable land use plans.
