Urbanism

Our Urbanism Services

According to the United Nations, by 2050, approaching 70% of the world population will live in urban settlements. Architectural projects are increasingly set within urban contexts or contribute to urban communities, whether cities, towns or urban villages. For the remaining 30%, situated in rural communities, an increasing proportion have urbanised lifestyles due to technological advances that facilitate remote working.

Wherever the location however, community-led development is key to dealing with the global pressure of climate change, population increase and the need to move away from dependency on fossil fuels.
