About
We are redefining urban spaces with
sustainable footprints and deeper
connections to nature.
OUR MISSION
Our mission is to bring
together the essence of the
land and the aspirations of
the people thriving
in their communities.
Working with us, we will shift the conversation from “what can we build here?” to “what should happen here, in service of the land and life?”.
Imogen Miller Urban Design is an urban design studio, with Imogen as design and strategy lead, supported by a core team of designers, CAD technicians and consultant specialists.
The design studio works closely with the client and with extended infrastructure teams, to provide and ensure the highest quality outcomes for; innovative design practice, integration of regenerative design and planning models, stewardship of ecology, high value places and landscapes, well-connected networks for all modes of travel, sustainable measures and high value architectural are consistently delivered.
COLLABORATION
We work closely with our
clients to understand the
scope of each project, and
when necessary, we bring
in a carefully selected team
of specialists to ensure
the successful delivery of the
contract.
We work with you to:
Walk through a design-led process; to explore options and develop possible development scenarios.
Build a strategy and draw a master plan; from concept design to detailed documentation for planning approval.
Engage in the implementation process.
Assess the outcomes of the design on site and feed back findings into the design cycle, making your project even more future-flexible.

IMOGEN MILLER'S URBAN DESIGN PHILOSOPHY
Imogen envisions a world where urban spaces are not just functional but they serve us as living expressions of shared values and aspirations.
Recognising the limitations of the current typical development ‘subdivision’ model in the communities she’s designed to delivery, Imogen is teaming up with experts to rethink the status quo. She approaches any project with a full investigation of the land’s intrinsic value, putting this first, before any vision can be realised.
Imogen and the extended team’s goal is to develop a new approach that not only tackles cost challenges but also embraces advanced technologies and creates delivery models that put people and regenerative land practices at the forefront.
WHO WE WORK WITH
Our clients are: Private Developers (large and small), Local Councils, Governments, Design and Planning Consultancies.
OUR DEFINITION
Regenerative:
Our regenerative design
approach begins with the land –
not as a blank canvas, but as
a living system with intrinsic value.
We honour the natural form,
health, and ecological identity
of the site as the foundation for
every planning decision.
In practice, this means shaping communities that:
Work with natural systems rather than
against them.
Generate positive ecological, cultural,
and social outcomes over time.
Foster resilience by prioritising diversity,
local identity, and adaptability.
Recognise land and its micro-climate
as living – with history, with spirit, and
with a future to steward.
A regenerative master plan isn’t just about zoning,
yield, or roads. It’s about unlocking the potential of land
and people together – through a design process that
listens, collaborates, and dares to imagine bold futures.
“Working with nature is the future of sustainable cities,
and part of this means that regenerative practices
can support the positive outcomes”.
-Imogen Miller
We acknowledge the Darkinjung, Guringai, and Awabakl people as the traditional custodians of the lands on which our design studio resides and extend our acknowledgement to all traditional custodians of the lands our projects reside upon in the Central Coast, NSW.
We respect and nurture relationships and partnerships with all custodians, clients and collaborators, acknowledging the privilege we have to partake in best-practice design and planning of the land. We aim to uphold the intrinsic value it offers to enrich future experiences.
WHAT WE DO
We are in the business of
designing communities
and places that are healthy, equitable, resilient
and sustainable.
Renowned for delivering excellence, we’ve built a reputation for working with high-profile clients and transformative projects that demand nothing less than extraordinary results. Our approach is always grounded in a deep respect for the communities and land we serve.
We have been designing new places for nearly two decades, including town centres, urban precincts and new communities, bringing to life places and new experiences for people to thrive in. Our projects extend across eastern Australia, from the ACT, to Sydney NSW, the Central Coast NSW, and as far north as QLD.
