We plan with purpose—because the choices we make today shape a more connected, resilient future.

what we do

At TBB Planning, we believe in the power of connection. We don’t just plan places. We connect people, place and opportunity.

With over 30 planners, urban designers and support specialists, we are one of WA’s largest dedicated urban design and planning teams. We lead complex projects and bring together multidisciplinary expertise to deliver seamless outcomes. Our collaborative approach and trusted partnerships with developers, consultants, government and communities reflect our commitment to shared success.

Our work goes beyond shaping places. We’re here to create outcomes that have a positive and lasting impact on people, communities and future generations.

Our services

places people belong

We recognise that creativity and innovation comes from bringing different cultural perspectives together, and cultivating their unique contributions. When current and future community members contribute to the planning process, the result is a place where each person shares a sense of belonging.

Our engagement approach provides this opportunity for community members to share their voice.
