Master Planning
Environments Planned to Expand Human Capacity
Placemaking is integral to shaping the future of our environment. Corporate and Institutional Clients require a framework for functionality, operational performance and ability to accommodate changes in their industry or marketplace. Commercial Developers seek a strong sense of identity and community through connected, activated and sustainable mixed use and resort master planning concepts.
With each project, we introduce features and amenities that enhance the quality of life for employees, tenants, guests and residents.
Our master planning concepts develop flexible solutions that adapt to conditions and various market demands - allowing for commercially successful developments rooted in environmental responsibility.

The Latest Issues and Developments In Our Field
City Centers
The evolution of the “New Urbanism” movement that began at the end of the 20th century involves the establishment of vibrant public space at the heart of suburban and exurban bedroom communities.
This is evident in such projects as our Alpharetta City Center that created a new city hall, park space, and mixed-use development parcels to anchor the civic activity of the city.
Transit-Oriented Development
Location, location, location... Densification of development around transit options has been a driver of urban growth since cities began. The nexus between the growth of transit and development has rarely been more evident than it is today.
In Atlanta, density created by projects like 3344 Peachtree and Alliance Center spurred the expansion of the Buckhead Marta Station. This greater access to transit, in turn, has increased the viability of a new generation of surrounding projects like Skyhouse Buckhead, Related Stratford as well as future projects at Tower Place.
