Since 1968, we’ve worked on thousands of projects, both big and small. Here are some of our favorites.
It was an honor to work with this organization that supports families with pregnant women and young children. We provided detailed conceptual designs to show what is possible for this renovated building and oasis of health services.
NDC played a key role in envisioning the potential of this space, identifying key architectural elements, leading the engagement approach, synthesizing the information gathered into a prioritized programming list, and drafting an impactful vision report.
NDC provided pro-bono design services through our Community Design Works program to help this independent non-profit library envision how to best optimize their space for new programming.
How might we create a space with free internet access and helpful programming for residents who need it? NDC created designs and recommendations for both indoor and outdoor spaces.
Rebuild Johnston Square received a $50,000 Neighborhood Nature Grant to fund construction of a shared green space. We provided community engagement to bring forth a magical design, transforming an underutilized and unbuildable open space into a meditative garden.
For this large-scale project, we assembled dozens of professionals who donated a total value of $110,000 for their expert services. The result was an impactful master plan that secured a $26M Federal TIGER Grant to make these community visions and reality.
NDC assisted in designing a traffic calming plan for the extended Cecil Elementary footprint.
Hope Village will become a model for addressing homelessness in cities. We created a planting site plan that includes native vegetation, private yards for each home, and a shared community garden.
NDC met with residents, sharing green infrastructure strategies and gathering input through surveys and discussions. Site analysis and a concept plan were developed to address areas most impacted by stormwater runoff.
This project is a cornerstone of the park’s equitable development plan, ensuring that it remains accessible and inclusive to the surrounding community.
