Programming & Planning

San Luis Sustainability Group (SLOSG) is committed to contextual planning at multiple scales and cross-disciplinary practices that combine permaculture, architecture, landscape design, and appropriate technology as shown in the following examples.

 

Sustainable planning implies connectivity between these scales of concern:

California State University | Monterey Bay

The conversion of Fort Ord from an amphibious warfare base to a state university was begun in 1995. As sustainability consultants we advised on recognition of this 1300-acre site’s natural features and opportunities for incorporation into the master plan.

A Cellular Lattice of Optimized Flows

The campus is seen as a holistic entity in which flows are the generator. Visual flow of the regenerated dune landscape; thermal flows in building siting & design; resource flows of construction & use; cyclic flows of resources & waste management; flow of time in requiring flexibility; diverse flows of goods & people via transportation; flow of knowledge in response to the academic vision.

Planning Projects

Our facilitation of a collaborative workshop of stakeholders plus planning and design studies create a comprehensive plan for the heart of every project.

Trout Farm Home/Office ComplexSanta Margarita, Ca.

Plan for Hidden Villa

Our facilitation of a collaborative workshop of stakeholders plus planning and design studies created a comprehensive plan for the heart of the Hidden Villa Foundation. The result, an enhanced riparian corridor and valley integrating elements of existing facilities along with new buildings by SLOSG and others. Enhanced infrastructure and visual improvements also express the core identity of an organic farm in this preserved mountainous terrain.
