EDAW was an international landscape architecture, urban and environmental design firm that operated from 1939 until 2009. Starting in San Francisco, United States,[1][2] the company at its peak had 32 offices worldwide.[3] EDAW led many landscape architecture, land planning and master planning projects, developing a reputation as an early innovator in sustainable urban development and multidisciplinary design.[4]
EDAW is an acronym derived from Eckbo, Dean, Austin and Williams, the names of four of the firm's original partners: Garrett Eckbo, Francis Dean, Don Austin, and Edward Williams. A limited partnership, the firm was bought by the American engineering conglomerate AECOM in 2005,[5] ceasing to exist as a standalone practice in 2009 when it was fully integrated into the company.[6]
