Landscape Architecture and Urban Design Services
Osborn Consulting’s landscape architects and urban designers believe that cultures are defined by the quality of their public spaces. We are committed to work that deepens the connection of people to the land and each other. A safe and beautiful public realm improves the health and resilience of our communities. All of our work is inspired by this.
We pride ourselves on being great designers and masterful technicians. Our approach emphasizes the thoughtful use of materials and sustainable systems. We enjoy a diverse range of projects, from educational campuses to civic facilities, transportation to ecological restoration. Our expertise in planning, permitting, design and construction observation, public outreach, and facilitation adds value to each project. As recognized leaders in green stormwater infrastructure and low impact development, we often work closely with the civil engineers at Osborn Consulting to craft innovative solutions. The fundamentals of soil science, ease of maintenance, constructability, and life cycle cost efficiencies are essential to create enduring, well-loved places. Our success is based on being inspired and practical.
Osborn Consulting’s Landscape Architecture and Urban Design Group was formerly Cascade Design Collaborative. By uniting our two firms in 2019, we’ve assembled an exceptional team of landscape architects, urban designers, and civil engineers to meet our clients’ needs. Click here to read more.
