Designing Cities With You, For You
Hey! I’m Rachel, an urban design educator helping people mold spaces in their community so design keeps your safety and well-being at the core of the city’s function.
Our Services
Design Consulting
Everyone else designs for communities. We help you design with them by making public participation irresistible and working with your team to interpret what people say, what they mean, and how to build spaces that respect both your goals and theirs.
Field Notes
Learn to see like a designer. This freebie helps you to document movement, patterns, and character in public spaces so your design decisions start with real-world insight.
Architecture plays a crucial role in shaping who we are, where we come from and where we are going. But too often, what gets built is designed behind closed doors. Cities, now, function either as places to sleep or places to visit, drifting further from their true purpose: places worth living in.
However, at Studio Leonardo, we believe the best designers of your place are the people who live there. If we want cities to be places people enjoy living in, then they must be co-created with their communities.
So we offer complimentary educational videos and design consulting to help communities and professionals shape more livable cities.
