A water runnel meanders through the new Louisiana Children’s Museum landscape and opens up to the "Hummock Hop”—a place for jumping, splashing and tracking the footprints of wild marsh animals. Wild animals have already moved into the new marsh and we look forward to children exploring these spaces when the new museum opens August 31! 📷: Christian Runge

We’ve had a fantastic time at the ACUHO-I conference in Toronto this week! Thanks to everyone that visited our Campus Communi-tea booth and attended Bill LaPatra's educational session this morning with University of California, Irvine, “The Quad-radical Formula: Solving for X with Many Unknown Variables.” If you missed it, let us know—we’ll gladly share highlights from the panel discussion about campus housing densification, and a lovely cup of tea. https://bit.ly/2WXYMXC @ACUHOI #ACUHOI #DesignforPositiveChange

It’s the first day of summer, and school’s out (or getting close!) across the country. We are honored to work with diverse PreK-12 schools on master planning, new and renovated facilities that strengthen curriculum and support experiential 21st century learning. Memorable gathering and learning spaces at The Athenian School’s new Innovation Hall feature seamless indoor-outdoor connections framing views of the Mount Diablo watershed. 📷: @joefletcherphoto

We are excited to support the Design with Nature Now conference starting TODAY at The Ian McHarg Center for Urbanism + Ecology! A core conference theme, Fresh Waters reminds us of our pollinator garden at 2060 Folsom in San Francisco’s Mission District, where field research for planting types, soil and water regimes led to our community engagement and development of a garden to attract native pollinators. The landscape design ties into the historic hydrology of Mission Creek and Laguna-Dolores Lake. Our plant palette was built on research provided by The Urban Bee Lab at UC Berkeley and our gracious volunteers were San Francisco Recreation & Parks Department Urban Agriculture and Community Gardens Program and PODER (SF) In Chan Kaajal Park Community Garden. #DesignWithNatureNow #DesignforPositiveChange #landscapearchitecture #landarch #climatechange #ASLA #landscapedesign Landscape Architecture Foundation American Society of Landscape Architects

Four days and counting! We are excited to support the Design With Nature Now Symposium at The McHarg Center. When we think about Rising Waters, we think of our partnership with Metro Parks Tacoma to create a long term vision for their waterfront in Washington State. This project addressed specific sea level rise issues while prioritizing community values and storytelling. Community outreach was intentionally wide and prioritized — Salishan Night Out, the Tacoma Urban League at First Creek Middle School, Bryant Middle School, the Tacoma Community Boat Builders, and the Tacoma Urban League Sisterhood in the City program. 📷: @metroparkstacoma

We unveiled the “SkyPark” design concept at the Uber Elevate Summit in Washington D.C. today. This Los Angeles design focuses on the greater community, incorporating transit connectivity, sustainable performance and neighborhood placemaking with an expansive public amenity at ground level. With a 2023 commercial launch target, Uber Air Skyport Mobility Hubs will accommodate pedestrians along with aircraft operations (known as electric vertical take-off and landing, or “eVTOL” vehicles), electric bikes and scooters, EV charging infrastructure and connection to public transit. https://player.vimeo.com/video/341867831 #UberElevate #DesignforPositiveChange
