“Isabelle is a role model.”

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Urban Design

“Isabelle’s work resulted in greater focus on connectivity and pedestrian linkages to Ports of Call and the waterfront to create community buy-in for the plan that was ultimately approved. Isabelle was constructive [and] focused the coalition on these issues.”

“As a result of Isabelle’s leadership in galvanizing and integrating the view of the community and her presentation to the board, she has had a very positive influence on the direction of growth at the Port for the next 50 years in a way that will affect the entire region.”

“ Isabelle’s planning and design experience and skills set a collaborative tone for community action at the Ballona, establishing a high community design standard, successfully integrating science and design values.

“Isabelle’s work has been very valuable to Coastal Conservancy’s projects because of her skillful design, exceptional graphics and commitment to environmental sustainability. Isabelle’s work at Malibu Lagoon was invaluable in helping set the stage for the wonderful visitor amenities now built.”

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Architecture

“The design work and teaching that Duvivier did gave energy to the entire sustainability movement at the College”

“Even though I am an experienced home builder, the entire building process with Isabelle was an education for me. I was able to gain much insight into LEED pilot program guidelines and methods and share this knowledge on future projects.”

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mapping and Communication

"Under Isabelle’s leadership our team communicated complex water supply and water quality solutions in a way that was clear and concise. Isabelle’s maps gave voice and vision to the water quality/ supply and habitat solutions for our region’s future.”

"Your innovative work has caught our attention here in Thimphu, Bhutan, where we are preparing a new plan for the capital of the Kingdom and are working on a number of similar studies, including aquifer systems, off street footpaths, urban green corridors, water percolation... and limiting paved areas.”

“This map is a really innovative way of showing people the interconnectedness of their environment... It will help protect this valuable resource.”

“The innovation of the Kids’ map (The Ocean, My Watershed and Me) with all the compelling new iconography and interesting images linking behavior to habitat and water quality has inspired other mapmakers to reflect their regions.”

“Isabelle Duvivier left students both amazed and inspired. Amazed that there was someone this creative and imaginative; inspired to think that they too might contribute in their own way. She is in my view truly extraordinary at what she does and I am honored to call her a colleague and friend.”
