From Atlanta to San Francisco to Shanghai, Portman participates in prominent master planning projects around the world. Planning with human values is the first step in the process. Defining goals and aspirations, identifying challenges and opportunities, understanding the relationship to time and place, connecting with how people respond to their environment - these are the keys to Portman's people-conscious approach to effective master planning.

In addition to master planning for urban and suburban development, Portman is adept at master planning for college and university campuses. A campus is a living, dynamic environment that needs to maintain flexibility. Portman meets this responsibility by assessing the campus and its requirements, knowing the institution's constituency, and beginning the design with programming and master planning. Our inclusive programming process builds a focused project team, initiates dialog with key stakeholders, and, after defining vision, needs, and goals, leads to the creation of a campus master plan, a roadmap for sustaining the campus and for future on-campus development.
