BRILLIANT DESIGN IS MORE THAN AESTHETICS
Our work is widely recognized for creative excellence, but we define design as the ability to solve problems and find unseen opportunities as well as to create beautiful and lasting spaces. Our design intent is to maximize the economic, human and environmental potential of every mandate we lead.
LAND IS A LIMITED AND VALUABLE RESOURCE THAT DESERVES INNOVATIVE THINKING
A key principle of our work is to explore and maximize the possibilities of all spaces and environments. We engage our clients in visualizing what is possible, and strive for designs and solutions that deliver unexpected potential. Our definition our success is a design solution that identifies and unlocks unseen possibilities.
CHALLENGING WORK LEADS TO BETTER AND MORE INVENTIVE SOLUTIONS
NAK was built on the desire to achieve results for even the most challenging situations and settings. Our ability to find ideas and resolutions that address unusual challenges is one of the primary factors in our longest standing client relationships.
DESIGN FOR TODAY ANTICIPATES TOMORROW
Increasingly, landscape architects must take into consideration the ongoing environmental impact of their work. Part of this is ecological: what choices can be made that minimize impact and maximize positive outcomes from the outset? Beyond this, decisions that recognize long term financial and environmental benefits and costs are an indicator of a philosophy that recognizes the larger picture. Design choices, material specifications, and innovative land use are just a few examples of the ways in which NAK anticipates the long term impact of the work we do.
