THK strives for design solutions that enhance the environment and quality of life for all who use them – a responsive synthesis of human values and aspirations.
As one of the most established professional consulting firms in the Denver Metro area, THK has continuously delivered project solutions. We have established ourselves in the community, from the southern desert to Front Range into the crests of the Rockies, as a firm focusing on stakeholder facilitation, wholistic design and successful implementation. THK excels at collaborating with clients and teams of all shapes and sizes from a one-person shop to large, multi-disciplinary design teams. THK has the staff and the enthusiasm to complete a small project on a tight deadline as well as the passion and the determination to see a regional scale project through to completion.

Our Philosophy
THK has been a leader in the planning, design and renovation of urban spaces, parks, greenways, river corridors and open spaces that enhance communities’ quality of life. Often, as part of multi-disciplinary teams, we have not only planned, designed and renovated, but also conducted cost estimating, bidding assistance and construction observation services on many of these projects.
THK has led public facilitation for many projects focusing outreach methodologies to “meet people where they live”. We pride ourselves on being able to move projects from the drawing board to reality, and for the last 25 years, the process of developing public projects has averaged about 70% of our yearly workload.
Our team is well recognized for integrating form, function, and sustainability into various developments and is actively involved in public and private projects.
THK not only designs innovative landscapes, focusing on water conservationusing native and drought tolerant plants, but also provides irrigation drawings for these designs, with a great understanding of how irrigation design is integrated with landscape design, ensuring the long-term success of the landscape.
