What We Do

WHAT WE DO

We design cities, destinations, and immersive experiences through a unique and patterned process rooted in creativity, research, and place-based strategy.

DESIGN & PLANNING

We create sustainable, adaptable, and locally inspired solutions for cities, towns, neighborhoods, and resorts.

  • Urban Design + Planning
    Our studio develops master plans that are flexible, resilient, and tailored to the evolving needs of communities, tourism districts, and development zones.

  • Urban Design + Guidelines
    We pioneered the use of Pattern Books to translate vision into implementable rules. Our guidelines are user-friendly, context-sensitive, and adaptable across a range of regulatory and cultural settings.

  • Urban Design + Architecture
    We create architecture that reflects regional identity and human scale. Our collaborative process blends community input with architectural creativity to deliver places that resonate and endure.

IMMERSIVE SHOWS

We help clients design and deliver world-class entertainment experiences within built environments.

  • Concept Development + Show Strategy
    We collaborate with producers, directors, and creative teams to develop show concepts rooted in cultural narratives, tourism strategy, or brand storytelling.

  • Creative Direction + Scenic Integration
    We help shape the visual identity of shows, integrating sets, lighting, sound, and spatial experience into the surrounding architecture and landscape.

  • Entertainment Districts + Visitor Flow
    Our planning extends to layout, guest circulation, and operational strategy to ensure performances are well-supported by infrastructure and designed for audience impact.

RELATED CONSULTING

Our team offers cross-disciplinary advisory services to align design with performance, delivery, and long-term success.

  • Place-Based Strategy
    We support clients with early-stage visioning and investment framing to guide project identity, mix, and phasing.

  • Design Advisory + Peer Review
    We assist with design oversight, competition evaluation, and quality control throughout the life of a project.

  • Community + Stakeholder Engagement
    We facilitate outreach and participation strategies to ensure projects are well-informed, collaborative, and publicly supported.

 

We Work Globally

Our projects have taken us across continents—from historic towns and emerging districts to cultural destinations and entertainment venues. Whether designing new neighborhoods, curating immersive show environments, or advising on creative development strategy, we bring our process wherever it is needed. At Praxisma, we see every location as an opportunity to shape meaningful experiences through design, story, and place.
