Urban Design
Urban Design plays a pivotal role in shaping urban form and spaces.
At the heart of our approach is a commitment to good design. As leaders of Urban Design in Victoria, we see ourselves as facilitators, applying our understanding of various stakeholder interests to create practical and imaginative solutions that work.
Over the past two decades, our Urban Designers have led strategic master planning, design advisory, expert evidence, and capacity-building projects across both the private and public sectors that have activated, connected, and inspired societies.
