Density and the suburban dream
Talk: Thursday 1 May - 18.30 - £5 (£3 concessions)
How can we make most effective use of suburban land? Former RIBA
president Sir Richard MacCormac believes that the ‘suburban
dream’ can be achieved by building at much higher densities
than is currently the norm. Here he presents the findings of his
practice’s recent Sustainable Suburbia report and ongoing
research into how a ‘three dimensional’ planning approach
could create sustainable garden suburbs that are both walkable
and well-connected.
Booking is essential. To book, please send an
