The Oval Partnership

We are an award-winning team of international strategic planners, architects and urbanists who conceive and execute leading projects that nurture and sustain the long-term value of a community’s social, ecological and economic capital. We catalyze parallel initiatives to enhance positive community development and to illustrate new ways of building community to inform our design process. Our projects enhance the human experience, tell the story of context, and preserve heritage. They are based on collaboration towards a shared, long-term prosperity, and are designed to leave an enduring and meaningful impact on a city’s livability and sustainability. OUR APPROACH Successful projects invariably tell compelling stories of context and give citizenry new ways of relating to the urban dynamic. We want to have an enduring impact on a city’s livability by supporting meaningful sustainability and honoring community. For us, that means creating spaces that meet the demands of the twenty-first century and enhance the human experience. By respecting that people, place, community and planet are separate parts of a whole, and by engaging them in the process. By fostering and nurturing interactions and exchanges that build livable streets and reinforce social bonds. By honoring site and heritage. And by furthering the long-term viability and growth of the social and economic capital of our communities.
