Environmental Design Group
At Environmental Design Group, shaping the future of our communities is what we do best. Our experts specialize in a variety of fields that include civil engineering, landscape architecture, surveying, environmental services and construction management. Working together is how we achieve success, because collaboration across disciplines opens doors of possibility that so often stay closed. Our projects are present throughout the community. Think of us as the behind the scenes vision makers: the trail path you hike, the line that transports your water, the added turn lane on your way to work. We make the environment safer, not only because we can respond to environmental risk, but because we do everything with the well-being of our environment in mind. People trust us to see their project through and make community better. It’s here for all of us.
