Brett Merriam
he/him Project Manager
Brett believes camaraderie is the bedrock of great places — where even the briefest shared experience can turn strangers into trusted neighbors. As a project manager and urban strategist at Gehl, Brett weaves together his expertise in ethnography, planning, and design to advise both public and private sector clients in how to create people-first places that bring people together, instil a sense of belonging, and make everyday life more enjoyable. His experience spans across disciplines and scales from global strategies for equitable community development to site-specific urban transformations. Not afraid to get into the weeds, Brett translates deep analytical research into creative guidance for clients. Brett’s approach is expanded by his passion for queer spaces and music scenes, where communities learn how to carve out their own special places.
