01 / CapabilityCities & Spatial Strategy
We build spatial frameworks and land-use strategies that connect a client's ambition to the realities of a specific place.
This starts with reading the site, its policy context and the people who use it, then working through options until a direction holds up under real constraints, including ownership, infrastructure, funding and phasing. The result is a framework a county, developer or institution can actually build a decision around, not a concept that stalls at the presentation stage.
- Best for
- Masterplans, regeneration briefs and land-use frameworks
- Typical outputs
- Spatial frameworks · phasing plans · policy diagrams
Discuss This Service ↗02 / CapabilityInfrastructure & Urban Mobility
We design movement systems and infrastructure-led development that work at street, city and regional scale together.
Kenya Ports Authority experience feeds directly into this: understanding how freight, transit, pedestrians and vehicles actually compete for the same corridor. We work through complete-street retrofits, transit corridors and access strategy with an emphasis on what is fundable and buildable, not just what looks resolved in a render.
- Best for
- Corridor design, transit planning and complete-street retrofits
- Typical outputs
- Network plans · street sections · priority matrices
Discuss This Service ↗03 / CapabilityResearch, Policy & Cartography
We turn policy questions, spatial data and field evidence into material that supports a specific decision.
This covers everything from a targeted policy review to a full GIS-based evidence base: sourcing and cleaning spatial data, mapping constraints and opportunities, and writing it up in a form a non-technical audience can act on. See the Research page for our full process.
- Best for
- Policy questions, evidence gaps and public-facing communication
- Typical outputs
- Maps · policy briefs · spatial datasets
View Research Page ↗04 / CapabilityClimate Resilience & Environmental Planning
We build development approaches around water, ecology, heat and long-term environmental risk rather than around them.
For coastal, riverine and rapidly urbanising sites in particular, environmental constraints often decide what is actually buildable. We map those constraints early and design safeguards into the plan itself, so resilience is structural rather than an add-on at the end.
- Best for
- Risk-aware plans in flood-prone, coastal or high-growth areas
- Typical outputs
- Constraint overlays · safeguard strategies · action plans
Discuss This Service ↗05 / CapabilityDevelopment & Investment Strategy
We build the planning narrative that aligns land, infrastructure and phasing with a project's commercial logic.
Investors and developers need more than a masterplan. They need a case that holds together across land assembly, infrastructure sequencing and market realities. We prepare the spatial and strategic material that supports that case, from investment prospectuses to phased delivery programmes.
- Best for
- Investment propositions and phased development platforms
- Typical outputs
- Strategic narratives · delivery programmes · investment roadmaps
Discuss This Service ↗06 / CapabilityVisualisation & Spatial Communication
We turn technical spatial work into visual material that moves a project from concept toward funded delivery.
Boards, councils and investment committees rarely have time to read a full technical report. We build the models, drawings and diagrams that carry a project's logic in a single glance, so the audience that needs to say yes actually understands what they are approving.
- Best for
- Complex concepts that need to be understood quickly by a non-technical audience
- Typical outputs
- 3D models · technical drawings · presentation visual systems
Discuss This Service ↗07 / CapabilityWeb Design & Digital Platforms
We design and build business websites, civic tools and digital platforms around the decisions their users need to make.
This grew out of planning work rather than general web development: the same spatial and research discipline that shapes a masterplan also shapes how county data, civic information or a studio's own portfolio gets structured and presented online. KenyaYetu, a civic information platform mapping counties, leadership and public data across Kenya, and this website itself were both built in-house on that logic.
- Best for
- Consultancies, SMEs, civic organisations, digital portfolios and data-rich public platforms
- Typical outputs
- Website strategy · UX/UI design · responsive development · SEO and deployment
