The consulting landscape architects at NUVIS strive to enhance their world by working on projects as diverse as planned residential communities, public recreation, urban redevelopment, transportation corridors, leisure and entertainment, golf planning and development, and environmental mitigation, always striving for balance between the built and natural environment, even in the most urban of areas.

For instance, Phase II design of a downtown business district along Brand Boulevard in Glendale was implemented to stimulate activity and economic vitality. Yet, the design achieves human interaction with a balance of intimacy in paving patterns and open areas and widened sidewalks for congregating and open air eating areas whose dynamics are as vibrant by night as by day.

Nevertheless, though the ability to be a premier design resource is a prime directive within the firm, some of the firm's most significant and far-reaching impacts may involve communicating the concepts by which professionals working with public entities may help preserve and enhance the public's access and enjoyment of natural treasures and environmental amenities, like the Los Angeles River, for which the firm has developed a master plan and feasibility design of a 19.5 mile-long bike trail.
