As urban designers and landscape architects, at Node we often look at our own city and imagine the changes we would make to improve our surroundings. Last year our client Birmingham City University (BCU) gave us the opportunity to do just that.
Node director, Katie Kershaw, has today been announced as a finalist in the ‘Rising Star’ category of the British Property Federation’s Tomorrow’s Leaders Awards.
The Town and Country Planning Act 1947, introduced by a Labour government set out the requirement of planning permission from local authority, with provision to appeal against refusal.
As urban designers and landscape architects we continually strive to craft a vision of the future, working collaboratively with a wide range of stakeholders from decision makers to end users. However, we do not work in a vacuum of what is happening politically, economically and environmentally in the world.
