Buffalo Unlimited

Art x Love toured 24 parks in Buffalo, New York, interviewed dozens of residents, and collaborated with local leaders and The Trust for Public Land to create the 16-page Buffalo Unlimited Activity Book for the Buffalo Parks Plan. The book features a mix of educational, creative, and participatory design exercises that are designed to inspire, inform, and guide Buffalo Parks development.

The Buffalo Unlimited Activity Book is available in English, Spanish, and Arabic and is free and for all ages. Buffalo resident submissions received by April 3, 2021, will be automatically entered into a lottery for a chance to win a range of prizes that include smart watches, a Chromebook, local business gifts cards, sporting goods, and much more. Please visit the Official Rules and take the Buffalo Parks Master Plan Survey to help shape the future of Buffalo Parks.

The Buffalo Parks Master Plan is a project of The City of Buffalo’s Division of Parks & Recreation and the Office of Strategic Planning. The Trust for Public Land is leading the project and is working with local design and planning firms New City Parks and the Regional Plan Association. Representatives of local agencies and community groups are guiding the process as members of a steering committee. The Buffalo Parks Plan is being carried out from January 2020 through June 2021. This effort was made possible through the generous support of Ralph C. Wilson, Jr. Foundation.

Play for All

WWBD Consulting brought us in to help with research, strategy, and design for the Stow City Center: Play for All Project.

We provided strategic considerations for research, and helped lead development and implementation of a Community Visioning Day to coincide with Stow’s annual Pizza Palooza community event.

Research was designed to be highly accessible and interactive, and focussed on community feedback and ideas for Stow City Center’s Playground, Splash Pad, Amenities, and Activities.

Community input was segmented between kids, teens, adults, and seniors to gain strategic insight toward specific priorities and preferences among each age group.

Research leveraged key insights and learnings to catalyze the community and help City leaders and residents align on a plan to support and realize long-term vision for Stow City Center.
