Our Portfolio

We design cities, towns, and neighborhoods with our design-by-ear process.

URBAN DESIGN + PLANNING
Our studio remains on the cutting edge of the ever-evolving urban design and planning world, allowing us to provide sustainable master plans that are flexible for the needs of your city and its economic and social vitality.

URBAN DESIGN + GUIDELINES
In the 1990s, UDA pioneered the use of Pattern Books in today’s development paradigms when we learned that a well-defined master plan is not enough. Today, UDA develops easy-to-use design tools to be as flexible or stringent as needed, but always with a keen eye for creating a great environment that works for the place.

URBAN DESIGN + ARCHITECTURE
We develop locally inspired architecture that belongs to a region or neighborhood. Our architectural process incorporates the same design-by-ear approach, including interaction with your team in the process.

we are global

We travel a lot. During our over 50 years of practice, our projects have taken us across the country and around the world, many times over. This has always been our calling – to reveal, plan, and design new places for communities in every corner of the globe.
