TSW’s Planning Studio engages with communities and developers in metro Atlanta and across the Southeast to prepare relevant and innovative plans that reflect local needs. Our broad expertise, shown in the planning studio portfolio, covers master plans for downtowns and urban neighborhoods, comprehensive plans, development codes, site designs for private development, and higher education planning.

Meaningful community involvement is at the heart of all our planning efforts. We listen and cater our engagement strategy to the unique needs of each community and each client, and use creative tools to educate, build consensus, gather input, and have fun along the way.

As thought leaders in the Southeast, we understand that effective planning must address sustainability, historic context, walkability, and economic realities in order to identify the right strategies to create truly vibrant and unique places. Our plans are not made to sit on a shelf—they use simple graphics to present realistic aspirations and action plans. TSW‘s Planning Studio always keeps implementation in mind, so our multi-disciplinary designers often have the pleasure of making our plans become reality!
