ECOLOGY

By first evaluating natural infrastructure, Laconic develops projects in harmony with ecological and social systems for a sustainable outcome

The time when the world’s resources seemed infinite has come and gone. As human populations grow, cities consume most of our required natural resources. So, we need to carefully design and overhaul cities for sustainability.

Laconic undertakes the work to create ecologically sound, efficient, resilient, and sustainable cities. When looking at the essential systems within a city, we prioritize:

Socio-economics
Drinking water, storm water and wastewater infrastructure
Energy systems
Transportation infrastructure
Waste management
Land-use
Natural environment

“The major problems in the world are the result of the difference between how nature works and the way people think.”

Gregory Bateson
