Walter Communications helps designers and planners of the built environment shape an intentional reputation through communications. We focus on the ideas that inform our clients' work rather than the work itself. This unique approach leverages research, innovations, insights, deep expertise, and strong opinions to demonstrate thought leadership and illuminate the thinking behind the beautiful images of the firm’s portfolio. Founded by Amanda Walter in 2010, Walter Communications has evolved into a virtual practice with accomplished, specialized consultants who collaborate to deliver value to our clients through top-tier services.
