Architecture / Press release
French term or phrase: Elle croise ses réflexions
This is really a general term but it appears in an architectural press release:

'Sa pratique s’appuie sur des convictions fortes, des projets urbains « ultra-contextuels » inspirés du génie du lieu, des bâtiments sur mesure, avec une volonté constante d’utiliser les énergies naturelles. Elle croise ses réflexions à toutes les échelles et nourrit ses projets de contributions d’artistes et de spécialistes, notamment en environnement.'

My attempt is: 'It engages in exchanging ideas at all levels ...' For me the sense here is that all staff within the company are encouraged to participate in sharing ideas and contributing to projects. I'm just looking for some peer agreement on this really.

Many thanks in advance for any contributions,

Louise
