how to engage

As an outreach organization devoted to creative investigation of complex urban issues we are committed to a wide range of relationships and are eager to facilitate connections between those with skills and support to offer and those who can make use of such help. The Tulane City Center has expertise in projects ranging from street furniture, through single-family house design/build, to large-scale urban and even regional design. We work principally with community organizations, institutional clients and other non-profit entities and support the needs of individuals through our collaboration with Neighborhood Housing Services and the Community Design Center.

It is important to note we do not compete for work with professional architectural or design firms, instead we intend to demonstrate the value of good design in venues not often touched by standard models of professional practice, and in so doing, support the growth of the design sector in our communities. Functioning as a not-for-profit organization, the TCC maintains the complimentary goals of progressive design and applied research excellence, and advocacy for a better quality of life for all people.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if interested in any of the work we have completed, or to discuss possible collaboration on future projects. As a grant funded center we also welcome the opportunity to speak with any persons/organizations interested in supporting our work.
