    ?? This past weekend, Christina Moon, Associate Principal and Landscape Planning Director, participated in the Greater Dallas Planning Council's Urban Design Task Force Housing Opportunities Case Study Walking Tour. ??? The event showcased innovative housing solutions in downtown Dallas, such as office-to-residential conversions, mixed-income developments, and supportive housing. A key takeaway was the critical role of partnerships—from faith-based landholders to government incentives—in delivering equitable and inclusive housing for all. At Asakura Robinson, we are dedicated to designing housing and mixed-use facilities that foster equity, sustainability, and community connection, creating vibrant, resilient spaces that support diverse populations. #UrbanDesign #HousingForAll #CommunityEquity

    We’re proud to share that Administrative Operations Specialist Lauren Doiron had the honor of presenting with Shawna Pace-Powers of Stambaugh Ness at Deltek ProjectCon 2024 in Washington, DC. Her session, "Improve Projects and Team Culture Through Ajera Project Closeout Dashboards," showcased strategies for optimizing project management and fostering collaboration. Lauren and Director of Administrative Operations Hayley attended the conference to gather insights on best practices and innovations in Ajera software, bringing back actionable ideas to enhance our operations. The event provided a rich mix of technical learning, thought leadership, and engaging discussions with peers in the industry. The keynote sessions were truly inspiring. Jason Dorsey highlighted the unique strengths each generation brings to the workplace, while astronaut José Hernandez shared his journey from migrant farmworker to space station crew member, showcasing resilience and determination. His story, featured in A Million Miles Away, left a lasting impact. We’re excited to implement the insights gained and look forward to future opportunities to grow and share. #DeltekProjectCon #Ajera #ProfessionalDevelopment

    Have y'all heard of "Awe Walks"? An awe walk is simply taking a walk while intentionally opening yourself up to wonder—seeing your surroundings with fresh eyes. This could be around your neighborhood, office, or anywhere you'd like! Studies by scholars like UC Berkeley Distinguished Professor Dacher Keltner show awe walks can ease anxiety, lift mood, and even help alleviate chronic pain flair-ups. For our awe walk today, we strolled to Swede Hill Pocket Park from our Austin office and admired the majestic heritage oaks in the area. Looking up to their canopy from below, it's hard not to feel a sense of awe and wonder! Have you experienced a moment of awe recently? Drop a comment to tell us about it! Happy #wellnesswednesday y'all!

    No site visit is complete without a visit from our local squirrel friends! ????? While visiting our UH Cullen project, we got a joyful reminder of how important landscapes are to urban critters, too. Creating spaces that invite nature in and offer moments of joy, even on the busiest days, is so rewarding. Let’s build more places like this, where people (and furry friends) can thrive. ?? Tag someone who loves these unexpected nature moments as much as we do! ???? #UrbanWildlife #SustainableDesign #AsakuraRobinson #coexist #naturelovers #environmentalstewardship

    Happy Bat Week (October 24-31)! ??? Share this post to celebrate and spread the word about bats! These often-unsung superheroes keep our ecosystems in balance—pollinating plants, eating pests, and helping our landscapes thrive. It’s amazing how such tiny creatures make such a huge impact! Let’s take some time this week to appreciate and protect them, ensuring that future generations can enjoy their benefits too. ?? #batweek #savethe bats #healthyecosystems #bats #pollinators #ProtectOurPlanet

    The 2024 Lands and Legacies Conference at George Ranch Historical Park was truly an incredible experience! It was wonderful to see government organizations, private organizations, and landowners discussing vital topics such as native plants, wildlife, water, and protecting Texas’s natural landscapes. In addition to these inspiring presentations, we enjoyed tours of the George Ranch prairie restoration, a demonstration of seed drilling, and the opportunity to connect with everyone who stopped by our booth. ??We are grateful for the chance to connect with our amazing community and exchange ideas about the future of our industry. Events like these remind us why we are passionate about creating sustainable and joyful spaces for all.? Which industry conference inspires you the most?

    Meet Marcus, the newest addition to the Asakura Robinson Houston office!? Marcus is a landscape designer who aspires to connect people with nature, while restoring nature’s circular systems. His passion for nature developed during his childhood and has blossomed into his choice of Landscape architecture as his ideal profession. Marcus has served as student project manager in state and national Landscape Architecture competitions. His designs focus on integrating nature and natural forms into urban and suburban environments, with a focus on remediation of those environments. Marcus values the sensory and therapeutic components of our natural world. He finds value in engaging with allied disciplines to offer a more holistic, multi-perspective approach to projects. His MLA thesis focused on the basis for play in children, and how aspects of survival and landscape engagement inform what landscape aspects and elements children seek in their outdoor playscapes.? He feels strongly that having children immersed in and interacting with nature will encourage them to be inspired, informed stewards of our planet. Beyond the studio, Marcus enjoys adventuring in natural habitats during all seasons, where he can birdwatch, hike, and take spectacular photographs. Help us welcome, Marcus by dropping a ? or a ???? in the comments! ?? #team #companyculture #teamnews #teamtuesday
