Equinox's mission is to work with clients to build community, protect and restore our region’s natural resources, plan for ecological sustainability, and design resilient and regenerative landscapes.

Design

From landscape architecture to residential design, we can make your vision a reality with environmentally sensitive designs that are both beautiful and functional.

Planning

Solid planning by an experienced team saves time, money, and resources and leads to a successful project—whether it’s a region, watershed, community, or an individual parcel of land.

Resiliency

We help our clients to assess the effects of current activities, plan for sustainability, and implement regenerative and resilient landscape solutions in response to environmental challenges including climate change.

Ecology

In ecology, details make the difference. Depend on our reliable data, permitting know-how, and monitoring skills for your next inventory, assessment, restoration, or management project.

""Equinox is one of the best local firms to integrate ecological and resiliency considerations in a meaningful, comprehensive way. They have ecological experts directly on staff and prioritize resiliency in their plans and designs. Their staff cares a lot, and they often go above and beyond to inventory sites. We have been involved in multiple projects with Equinox in which they led community and stakeholder input sessions (Pisgah View State Park, Chestnut Mountain Nature Park) - we find their community engagement process considerate, on-the-ground, well-advertised and approachable for locals due to the venue, graphics, and relationships. Equinox is very thoughtful about how to balance economic development, restoration, recreation and ecological considerations - their ability to juggle these and give fair weight to pros and cons is well thought out. (Some other firms in the region tend to be more "flashy" economic development and recreation-focused and they are less able to meaningfully integrate community/stakeholder input, ecological and restoration concerns - they talk about these items, but I've found they do not execute as meaningful a process to these factors)."
