Equinox provides sustainable solutions for a full range of planning, design and ecosystem management services. The principles of environmental stewardship, ecology, and resource conservation are deeply embedded into all aspects of our work. Equinox provides the tools and expertise to help our clients protect land and water resources, implement sustainable strategies, create healthy living opportunities and develop land in an environmentally responsible way. We are capable of producing tangible benefits for the environment, for the communities in which we work, and for our clients. At Equinox, we help build communities where people like to live. At Equinox we truly believe we can help people make a positive difference in their community and for the planet. Like many regions throughout the country, the southern Appalachian Mountains and the southeast region – where Equinox is located, is home to extraordinary environmental and cultural treasures. These treasures are assets that often face serious challenges and environmental pressures from poorly planned development patterns, air and water pollution, and impacts from climate change. We collaborate with our public, private, and non-profit clients to turn environmental pressures into opportunities. Employing a ‘balance through proper planning’ approach, we operate from a vision that there are sustainable solutions to these challenges that are beneficial for the environment, economy, and quality of life all at the same time. Together, it is our job to find, foster and develop these solutions and to put them to work for the benefit of our clients and the community.
