Design Excellence

Design Excellence is essentially an inclusive process of community leaders, spirited design professionals, and public & private entities coming together to shape their built environment through quality design in order to sustain their economic, cultural, and health values for generations.

Portland Transit Mall

Robert Hastings, FAIA

If its how transit supports 'Livable Communities', I'm on board! I help lead TriMet's efforts in excellent urban design, Great Streets, renewable energy, and sustainable infrastructure, and livable communities.

I also chair the Oregon Design Conference; a bi-annual gathering of design, planning, government, development, and construction leaders.

I believe that the transit systems and attendant infrastructure are the direct manifestation of our community's values, culture, and democratic efforts.
