Resort Village Design & Base Area Planning
Careful planning of pedestrian-oriented, commercial resort villages is critical to the success of a destination mountain resort. Our resort village master planning process begins with site selection and large scale land use planning, followed by alternative concepts, and concludes with a detailed master plan including 3D views, building massing, and conceptual layouts of commercial and service spaces. Ecosign's village master plans include a development program and consideration of parking, servicing for buildings, pedestrian plazas and event space. The resort village is integrated into base area and real estate development plans, creating a dynamic, vibrant resort to support mountain facilities. The scope of our work on resort village and land use planning can include a variation of the following:
- Resort Village Master Plan;
- Real Estate Site Plan;
- Land Use Plan;
- Day Lodge Planning & Skier Service Space Program;
- Four-Season Recreation Planning; and
- 3D Visualization.
