Chroma - Inspired Placemaking From the intersection of place, purpose, and perspective, Chroma helps clients create inspired place-based community activators. Serving a diverse wealth of clients and markets across the U.S., since 2006 Chroma has provided planning, design, site amenity, and project coordination services to owners, architects, engineers, contractors, and stakeholders over a broad spectrum of commissions. Seeking to understand and articulate each assignment’s unique aspirations, Chroma identifies and illuminates driving influences like context, character, function, ambition, and constraint to compel inspired placemaking. Committed to hands-on principal leadership in every phase of project development, Chroma maintains vital continuity from concept to completion to assure that what is envisioned is realized. Part art, part science, part landscape architecture, and part site animation, placemaking is difficult to define and perhaps even harder to achieve. Understanding the subtle influences of community character, contextual inspiration, scale, animation, and attitude, Chroma seeks to find the heart and soul of every commission we touch and reflect that back in a bold, dramatic expression of place that resonates with the people touched by the project. Like the work itself, Chroma’s clients come in a wide range of hues and approach placemaking success from many varied perspectives. Architects, landscape architects, and engineers engage our consulting services to enhance their own. Developers, philanthropic foundations, and community benefactors ask us to understand aspirations and ambitions to articulate the specialness of place in ways the public appreciates. State DOTs, municipalities, and regional government councils are often critical influencers on context and need gateway activators that make aesthetic and financial sense. Regardless of funding source, our client is your client - the broader community that will be impacted by our work.
