Andrew Krizman

Andrew is an urban planner and designer with broad experience preparing plans for sustainable, human scale, pedestrian- and transit-oriented places throughout the country and around the world. He collaborates with the principals in defining strategies for urban projects of all sizes and types, based on meticulous place research and analysis and robust community engagement. As he joined the firm in 2019 Andrew was completing his Master of Science degree in Sustainable Urbanism at Oxford University, and he continues to reinforce our practice with rigorous ongoing research.  He has been our lead urban designer for plans and codes for  walkable neighborhoods and mixed-use neighborhood centers, downtowns and rail station areas, and general plans for small towns and large cities. Andrew is now based in New York's Hudson River Valley, providing the firm with an East Coast base of operations.

For each new assignment, Andrew balances his knowledge of international best practices with place-specific solutions that emerge from careful analysis of the local context and from collaboration with clients and the community to define plans that meet the needs of public, private, and non-profit clients and the local community. Following his graduation in 2013 from the University of Notre Dame with a degree in architecture, Andrew practiced as an independent urban design and planning consultant, collaborating across disciplines and four continents to craft plans for sustainable urban places. As a senior designer on multi-disciplinary teams, he help to shape and illustrate urban plans in India, China, Costa Rica, Ecuador and France, and in Detroit, Savannah, Baton Rouge, Atlanta, and Seaside, Florida, ranging in scale from medieval building renovation to master plans for neighborhoods, towns, and major metropolitan districts.
