His new community planning and design focus on sustainable best practices. Warren’s transportation oriented work includes design guidelines for arterial roads and transit oriented development opportunities analysis. His “mobility hub” plans integrate multiple modes of transportation and set the stage for further private development.

He helps institutions define planning directions and realize development priorities through effective analysis, visioning, design solutions, and broad consultation. He has lead, designed and managed numerous campus and facility master plans. Warren is the author of several research and innovation park plans and participates in their on-going design review.

“At the Institute we see the designer as a problem solver with the ability to effect positive change for humanity. We are a place where students, teachers, industry and community can come together not only as creators and designers, but as ambassadors of hope.”
