Farr Associates Architecture & Urban Design

About Farr Associates Architecture & Urban Design

We start every project with a goal of creating pilgrimage sites — innovative, forward-looking places that prove the viability of a beautiful, equitable, and decarbonized built environment. Our planners and architects collaborate in workshops and integrated design teams to achieve collective outcomes that balance resources, priorities, and performance. We lead in our core areas of expertise: stranding carbon, placemaking, empathetic community engagement, and meeting ESG goals through distinguished in-house sustainable design.

As a Benefit Corporation, Farr Associates strives for a positive and measurable impact on society, its employees, and the environment. We maintain a reputation of actively working on behalf of those with diverse needs and identities, while belonging and contributing to a larger and just context. We align our business with a public good through full transparency — from our employee policies to our design intentions and community engagement.
