One thing we have done from the start is to go after limited design competitions, at the national and international level, that would allow us to take on the complexity, scale, and challenge of the work that we really wanted to do-complicated urban problems that dealt with infrastructure, denuded ecologies, ripped up sections of urban fabric, those sorts of things. The practice now has an incredible range of projects, from designing a plaza that's an acre and a half on top of a tunnel infrastructure at the heart of Harvard University, where the issues are on a complex and detailed scale, all the way up to collaborating on a team of planners and designers that is looking at 139 square miles around the city of Detroit, with the question of how to reshape that city, to rework how that city operates for the next twenty to sixty years.
