Urban design surrounds and sustains city life. It combines the time-tested principles and innovative ideas that enable vibrant growth. It invites people to visit, start businesses, and invest in neighborhoods. And by design, it connects people to places and each other.
At Omaha by Design, we contribute to a thriving metro by convening, engaging, educating and advocating for excellence in people-centered urban design and policy.
Affordable by Design (AxD) is a collaborative program that explores how innovation can accelerate the production of affordable housing. The core of AxD is a collection of Playbooks featuring free to use conceptual designs for efficient and affordable homes. Each Playbook was built through a community-focused design process centered on real-world development sites, but the resulting designs can be replicated in neighborhoods across the metro.
