The RVi Story
RVi embarked on a mission in 1982 to provide the highest quality landscape architectural design and planning services available in Texas. Starting from a small core of partners RVi has grown into a major regional design firm widely recognized throughout the U.S. for its creative contributions in land use analysis, master-planned communities, design of outdoor spaces, parks and recreation design, and wayfinding graphics.

We are place makers.
Our work has created spaces where people have a sense of place within their environment. We begin with understanding the intrinsic values of the land to build a foundation for development. The results of our work can be seen in more livable cities, cleaner environments, better utilization of resources, more beautiful public parks and enduring, vibrant master-planned communities.

RVi delivers.
While creativity and responsiveness to our client's needs are hallmarks of RVi's approach to planning and design, experienced project management, collaboration with other professionals, and a solid understanding of project economics form the foundation of RVi's success. We approach every project with a fresh perspective, sound professional judgment, and the experience necessary to manage a project smoothly from conceptualization through construction.

RVi is client focused.
Our many clients, from private sector developers, to municipalities, to federal agencies, have shown their confidence in RVi's visionary design expertise by calling on us again and again to be collaborators and leaders in creating landmark places for residential living, recreation and commerce. We take pride in the collaborative partnerships that have spanned years and even decades. Our consistent ability to deliver professional services that exceed our clients' expectations has allowed our reputation and skills to grow to match the most complex criteria for land use assessment, utilization, and implementation.

RVi communicates our clients' vision.
We understand that branding and theme development of communities is as important as the product delivered. Our team of graphic designers and landscape architects know what it takes to communicate a sense of a place and make it comfortable and logical to navigate in fresh and exciting systems.
