Top 10 Firms for Public Space / Placemaking Projects

Ranked by recency-weighted eligible project count at public space / placemaking venues, 2021–2026. The 10 highest-scoring firms hold a numbered rank; 27 more firms with eligible activity are listed below the table.

Counts design-discipline credits only -- exhibit design, interpretive planning, media design, architecture, master planning, landscape architecture, environmental graphics, lighting design -- held in a role the firm offers as a standalone service. Fabrication, AV integration, and consulting credits appear on project pages but don't place a firm on this list. Standard recency weighting and sourcing bonus apply.

Counts reflect the work this index has recorded, not a census of any firm's total output — coverage depth varies by firm — and a position here implies no judgment of design quality.
