DESIGN SUMMARIES & RECOMMENDATION REPORTS

The best spaces are built with—not just for—the people who use them.
Etopia Green Design leads inclusive charrettes and engagement sessions that reveal the needs, hopes, and experiences of real users, ensuring that your projects are grounded in lived reality rather than assumptions.

Our community engagement approach centers the voices of those too often excluded from design conversations: women, parents, caregivers, youth, elders, and marginalized groups. These perspectives surface insights that profoundly impact how safe, accessible, and welcoming a space becomes.

Whether you’re planning a new development, renovating an existing building, or redesigning a public environment, our charrettes provide clarity, direction, and community-backed validation for your design decisions.
