OLIN captures the value of our wide ranging forty-year body of work in diverse locations, scales, types, contexts and time periods in a process driven by our curiosity and informed by experience.
Location
We develop and apply the broad perspective gained by the location of our work in cities and diverse ecosystems across the nation and abroad.
Scale
We strengthen our practice by applying strategy and design tactics across the spectrum of scales from plazas to remote landscapes.
Context
We connect and enhance culture and nature in a range from the most urban to wild locations.
Type
We harness our diverse public, non profit and private sector project experience to reinforce the many complex facets of park design.
Time
We combine trusted stewardship of our cultural heritage with invention of new landscapes.
Design by Research
At OLIN, we are constantly researching—it’s an intrinsic part of our design process. Through OLIN LABS, our internal research incubator, our park projects can be run through five distinct modes of inquiry, ensuring that OLIN’s top investigators are contributing to your project.
