How can a neglected landscape act as a foundation for building stronger, healthier communities?
Ecology
Ecology is an essential driver of Sasaki's interdisciplinary practice. Our systematic approach traverses spatial and temporal scales and responds to diverse geographies. Working with our clients and communities, we strive to restore, create, and nurture healthy and regenerative ecosystems that will sustain the well-being of all residents of the planet.
