Ecological Design Group

A few moments from the Central States ASLA Awards!

Grateful to celebrate alongside members of our team whose work continues to shape thoughtful, resilient environments rooted in ecology and community. Recognition for projects like Unity Village and Lake Conway reflect a shared commitment to design that connects people to place and supports long-term impact.

We are beyond lucky to continue to create in this field.

Thank you to everyone who came out for Osage Park After Dark last Friday!

From the incredible dinner by Chef Case Dighero to conversations about the ecology, wildlife, and future of Osage Park, this evening always serves to be incredibly meaningful for those who attend.

The wetland system at Osage Park reflects EDG’s ongoing work in restoring and expanding natural infrastructure across Arkansas. Designed to capture, filter, and slowly release stormwater, the 12-acre system builds upon an existing wetland and strengthens its connection to Lake Bentonville. These strategies improve water quality, reduce downstream flooding, and support a thriving habitat.

One of the highlights of the evening was an appearance from the park’s resident beavers, a reminder of the active ecosystem that defines this space.

We are incredibly grateful for the support that this project continues to see from the Northwest Arkansas community. You are what makes our work possible, thank you!
