Description
The Design Companion for Planning and Placemaking by Urban Design London is an essential guide to securing better building design, open spaces, and neighbourhoods. It builds on the UK Government's National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) and Planning Practice Guidance (PPG), providing up-to-date explanations, examples, and practical advice. The book is structured to help readers understand and apply national design policies and guidance in a clear and accessible way. Part 1 covers general principles and concepts, while Part 2 explores how these can be applied to specific development types, such as housing, public space, or tall buildings. With its easy-to-use format, this companion provides valuable insights for those involved in planning and placemaking, helping them to create better places for everyone.
