Indigenous Urban Design is a science based approach to city building and urbanism. This design approach is highly adaptive and works to develop holistic communities built with land-based technologies, traditional ecological knowledge, integrated cultural continuity, and centred community co-design so that designs reflect the communities they're being built for.

Indigenous environmental design is an ancestral ecological design approach to stabilizing, revitalizing, and remediating the land. Western design technologies, especially in a hydrologically active context like BC, are not as effective as traditional land management techniques. By employing ancestral knowledge from an urban and environmental planning lens projects can significantly improve their sustainability and long-term success.

With very few Indigenous, let alone genderqueer designers, there is a significant skill gap in being able to provide gender-affirming and culturally affirming spaces for 2SLGBTQIA+ communities. We've developed Indigenous queer design methodologies to support the queering design and Indigenous sovereignty movements and to provide meaningful spaces to 2SLGBTQIA+ people.

With decades of experience in Indigenous community engagement & protocol we offer rooted best-practices learned from on the ground in the communities we were raised by and are serving.

We use a combination of Indigenous Research methodologies, Primary archival and Oral history records, Indigenized Actor-Network Theory, queer theory and community based research practices to bring the best urban sciences backed research to each and every project.

It is traditional to be innovative. We are constantly innovating,adapting, translating, updating, and renovating the design profession, our approaches, and our research to provide and develop the most cutting-edge practices in urbanism, environmentalism, queer design and community engagement.
