Huntfield is a New Urbanist town near Charles Town, West Virginia, with neighborhoods designed around their own small green space. We situated key civic buildings on high points and designed open spaces along existing swales and waterways. We maximized view corridors to natural features and historic structures in the landscape by creating axes within the town.

As a member of the Silver Spring Citizen's Advisory Board, I worked to create a more pedestrian oriented town center, focusing on boulevardizing the main arteries and incorporating more public green spaces near transit connections.
Kentlands Town Center, Gaithersburg MD
This project was designed to give Kentlands a walkable downtown with a sense of place that also satisfied the need for adequate parking for the nearby shopping center. Part of the challenge was transitioning from Kentlands' oldest and most village-like neighborhood to the west with plans for a future strip mall and parking areas to the east.
