spaces+places has arrived!

spaces+places come together as architecture and urban planning, and we work with both of these ideas in view at all times, in every project. We use the term "spaces" to talk about the contained spaces formed by architecture and man-made elements, or the landscape. We can think of them as rooms, whether interior or exterior. "Places," on the other hand, give us grounding and direction in our world. They help us to know who we are in our community, engage us in it, and point us where to go. These "places" can be our communities, public places, landmarks, or events.

We are committed to designing spaces and places that are as engaging as they are beautiful, and committed to doing so sustainably - fostering social justice and diversity, conserving natural resources, designing for humans and their health, and caring for the natural environment.
