Parks + Open Space
A community’s pride is readily evident in the character of its parks system. At Confluence, we believe there are opportunities in each community’s collection of park facilities, open spaces, and trail systems to further reinforce their unique identity. These spaces have an opportunity to connect the community, and they should reflect the collective values, activities, and quality of life aspired to by its residents.
Our landscape architects and planners are skilled in all aspects of park design and planning – ranging from engaging the community with informative surveys and interactive design exercises to analyzing regional park needs and implementing specific improvement projects. Our work is also technically grounded to integrate the need for efficient and cost-effective maintenance and operations into the overall design framework. These factors continually impact the ability to provide the wide range of services and facilities each community needs and desires.
While we take the responsibility associated with this work very seriously, we truly enjoy what we do and trust that our creative passion shows through in our built work. We strive to provide a fun and fulfilling atmosphere for your constituents, and trust that your community will become an even better place to live and play as a result.
