WDSLA uses the word WORK to describe projects that establish a productive and creative atmosphere in which to conduct business. These include private commercial projects of varying types and scales. Our designs in this category focus on establishing a lasting and maintainable client image while creating a comfortable, high-end customer and employee experience to enhance the ability to connect.

 

Key design fundamentals within this category include:

​

• Creating visual identity from transportation corridors

• Enhancing pedestrian movement from streets to storefronts, and from parking lots to entry points – way finding

• Providing parking lot shade to mitigate heat island effect of pavement surfaces

• Control and treatment of storm water

• Irrigation design compliance with state and local Water Efficient Landscape Ordinances (WELO)

• Low water use plant selection complimentary to architectural styles and durable to harsh environments.

• Supporting and/or enhancing utilitarian and logistical facilities such as solid waste enclosures, fire department connections, loading docks, electrical and plumbing access rooms
