The Cultivation Process™ is designed around the belief that every place holds a spectrum of possible futures, and the role of design is to align systems, people, and ideas to bring the most meaningful version into reality.

01

Reveal Systems & Relationships
Seeing the invisible so we can shape the visible.
We map the interconnected systems that influence the project:
