Sherwood Design Engineers is a group of civil and environmental engineers, and plannersin San Francisco, New York, Atlanta, Los Angeles, Santa Cruz and Sonoma County. What sets us apart in the international design community is our dedication to developing measurable environmentally responsible infrastructure and unique sustainable engineering innovation. Our firm has demonstrated leadership in sus
tainable infrastructure through project innovation, international publication, and academic contributions. We have many LEED-accredited green-building professionals on staff and in-house ecology on our design team, and we bring a history of sound, technical engineering to every assignment. Across the globe, we have implemented new technologies and green-design innovations on projects ranging from the engineering of individual buildings to the master planning of large-scale developments and sustainable communities. As engineers, we believe that true sustainability requires considering all aspects of a project’s design, development, and impact; and clients continually seek us out for our integrated approach to large-scale, environmentally sensitive projects. Our planning begins with specific site research to assess environmental constraints and opportunities, and our process encourages the active participation of all parties involved, including clients, other designers, public agencies, and the local community. Sherwood has been responsible for master planning and infrastructure designs for high-profile projects from the building scale to the city scale. Our team engineered resilient infrastructure for the Hudson Yards high-density urban development in New York. We applied our expertise in innovative stormwater management to the urban redevelopment of Mint Plaza that precipitated new standards for management of stormwater in San Francisco. Abroad, we worked on the 36-square-kilometer transformation of one of China’s largest brownfield conversions in the heart of the Pearl River Delta in Guangzhou. Each of our designs incorporates the best combination of technology and sustainability available. Everywhere we work, we provide creative engineering designs that make positive contributions to the local economy and environment. Whether it is installing California’s first residential rainwater harvester for indoor use, redesigning public parks and plazas to improve pedestrian and bicycle access, incorporating artistic elements into municipal infrastructure, or making cleaner, greener streets and schools, Sherwood is dedicated to integrating truly sustainable engineering into private buildings, urban ecosystems, and worldwide communities.
