Retail destinations build stronger brand connections when they give customers reasons to visit beyond a purchase. At American Girl Dallas, shopping becomes part of a shared experience, bringing families together through storytelling, dining, and celebration.

Building on a two-decade partnership, NELSON served as architect of record alongside creative agency Mythology. Salon experiences invite girls and their dolls into the brand’s world, while flexible party rooms accommodate celebrations of different sizes. Together, these spaces support American Girl’s evolution into a destination for family experiences, giving the brand more ways to become part of customers’ lives.

As master planner and Architect of Record, NELSON brought residential flats and rental cottages into a cohesive community where housing choice and access to recreation strengthen the resident experience.

When employees start each in-office day figuring out where to sit and where to find their team, time that could support productive work goes toward reorienting. In a workplace designed for hybrid work, team home bases give people a recognizable place to gather, helping them settle in sooner and collaborate with less friction.

Keeping work visible and making informal connection easier helps teams build a shared identity without relying on assigned desks. That consistency supports everyday productivity while strengthening belonging, which helps organizations sustain engagement and retain people.

Higher education institutions are rethinking the potential of their real estate, transforming underused properties into community destinations that generate revenue, strengthen partnerships, and advance institutional goals.

At Georgia Southwestern State University’s Griffin Bell Golf & Conference Center, NELSON transformed the site of a former community landmark into a destination designed for long-term value. With event spaces, retail, food and beverage offerings, and a dedicated Entrepreneurship Center, the facility creates opportunities for revenue generation while connecting students, local businesses, and the broader community.

As institutions face increasing financial pressures, strategic real estate investments can unlock value beyond tuition, creating assets that serve both the campus and surrounding community.

Creating lasting demand for a mixed-use destination starts with understanding what will bring people back. At Trilith, an integrated vision connects entertainment with the surrounding district, creating an experience that encourages repeat visits and supports tenant success long after opening day.

NELSON helps owners and developers translate that vision into places built for long-term value. By connecting strategy and master planning with architecture and design, we shape destinations that respond to their communities and adapt as markets evolve.

At NELSON, we’re proud to support co-op experiences that give students room to explore and put their learning into practice. By giving emerging designers hands-on experience, we’re helping prepare the next generation to shape the future of design.

For University of Cincinnati communication design student Grace Nunn, two co-op experiences at NELSON opened the door to “a totally different realm of design.” In a recent UC feature, Grace reflects on exploring environmental graphic design through her work on wayfinding, signage, and graphic wall coverings, broadening her perspective on where her skills could take her.
