OUR UNIQUE PERSPECTIVE

Our diverse portfolio shapes our perspective.

We have worked on projects large and small, and in practically every market sector — each having an impact on the firm we are today.

The knowledge we’ve gained from working in so many different market sectors allows us to seamlessly cross between them, bringing effective strategies and trends from different projects. This flexible mentality shapes our perspective as a firm, and the unique, dynamic projects we deliver.

For example, our intensive retail experience shows itself in projects for higher education and healthcare, mimicking shopping layouts for ease of navigation. For multi-family housing projects, we leverage our expertise from hospitality, bringing a high level of concierge and amenity to our designs.

THE SPACE BETWEEN

At Neumann/Smith, we see negative space as an opportunity.

No matter what type of project our team takes on, we take every opportunity to maximize the space between. We glorify spaces that are often overlooked by others. Environments like alleys, hallways, and green spaces are seen as placemaking opportunities.

An example of this type of thinking is our transformation of parking decks. We have a track record of activating parking decks, turning them into cornerstones of their community.

• THE Z + THE BELT / This parking deck and adjacent alley have become a vibrant hub for public art, culture, and nightlife in downtown Detroit.

• SOMA / This mixed-use parking deck features a park that brings the community together in a previously unused space

• BCBSM DECK / For Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan, we added a vegetated roof to their 9-story parking structure, the first in the City of Detroit and the second largest contiguous green roof in Michigan. Recently, we added a walking path so employees can take full advantage of this green space.

MARKET TRENDS

Mixed-use projects are not just retail + living spaces.

They encompass all our expertise from education, workplace, housing, retail and hospitality. No matter the mix, the goal is to design an impactful building that enriches the urban context and the people who experience it.

These 5 design opportunities are what we encourage for our mixed-use projects collectively for a successful, holistic experience:

Focus on inclusive design. Factor universal design principles, support diversity, design for all types of disabilities and economic backgrounds.

Mix up the mixed-use. Redefine uses and building types. Cater design to a specific experience + lifestyle. Reimagine what can activate at the street level.

Design community opportunities. Landscaping is an inexpensive and effective solution for this. Create greenways and paths that activate urban settings. Integrate local art + culture to enhance the experience. 01 02 03 04

Create immersive experiences. People are craving this more than ever. What story are you trying to tell? Create personal shopping experiences, pop-ups and attractions, and social media moments. Draw people in by becoming a destination.

05

Integrate biophilic design. This is instrumental in enhancing user physical and mental health, fitness and wellbeing. Design outdoor amenity spaces and increase usage of natural light, ventilation and materials. Environmental forms result in enhanced health, ease and productivity.
