With over half a century of combined experience, the Optimal Environments team helps organizations plan or improve buildings, parks, public spaces. The OE team helps organizations learn more about the needs, attitudes, preferences, or behavior of the people who work in, live in, or visit their settings.

OE has worked to improve, or increase knowledge about, physical settings ranging from wilderness parks to space vehicles, but primarily we work with everyday settings and the people in them, including offices, schools, libraries, daycare centers, industrial buildings, and health facilities. Optimal Environments conducts high-quality applied research and applies those findings toward the betterment of all who use them.

The principal team at Optimal Environments includes an architect and a behavioral scientist, both with PhDs, who together combine the best in creative and scientific solutions. They are familiar with building design, interviewing, survey development, simple and advanced statistics, behavior mapping and tracking, qualitative methods, and space syntax methods, among other methods.

Optimal Environments' team members regularly publish in scientific journals, and maintain up-to-date knowledge by participating in international scientific congresses, including keynote addresses in cities around the world.

Optimal Environments team is bilingual English/French, Anglais/Français.
