EDAW

For more than 65 years, EDAW's collaborative approach to landscape architecture, planning/urban design, environmental planning, and economic, social, and cultural services has shaped sustainable environments across the globe. Our clients come to us with land- and community-based challenges at a variety of scales — from a small vernal pool to a million acres. At each level, EDAW's approach encourages appropriate use of resources and enhances the environment.
Environments, whether built or natural, resist simplification and reward comprehensive attention. We strive for a "fusion" practice — forging connections between disciplines, roles, and technologies across the globe. We are committed to applying our vision and international expertise toward a sustainable future.
In the words of CEO Joe Brown, "EDAW is an idea-driven firm, whether the idea comes from science, planning, or design. The distinguishing quality in a democratic design and planning environment is its ability to push its people toward the powerful, profound ideas, and to stave off complacency. The best idea wins."
