Manasc Isaac Architects has an Urban Design Team focused on the design of sustainable neighborhoods, communities, city cores and streetscapes. Using our integrated design process, we facilitate community consultation to align the vision for a particular neighborhood, community, or part of the city.
But what is Sustainable Urban Design?
Sustainable urban design strives to envision ways of reconciling the competing demands of commerce and civic values while engaging/enhancing the natural environment.
As cities are intimately intertwined with their natural environment, and the ability of that environment to support diversity, cities are always in tension. We look to alleviate that tension through the exercise of the sustainable urban design themes outlined hereafter.
