Recent Projects
I have a range of experience in urban design, planning, ecology and education. Here's some of my recent projects
Climate Adaptation Recommendations for Bethnal Green Nature Reserve, London
I prepared a comprehensive climate vulnerability analysis for this urban nature reserve and climate adaptation recommendations to inform it's ongoing management.
Derby City Design Guide
I provided urban design and sustainability input to this project, which was led by Urban Initiatives. Once adopted by the local authority, the design guide will raise the standard of new development coming forward in the city centre.
Planning for a Sustainable Future Conference
I curated and project-managed a landmark conference at University of Kent exploring the future of Kent county as it responds to the challenges of climate change and housing demand, and the opportunities of urban regeneration.
Westminster Building Heights Study
I conducted spatial GIS analysis for this commission for City of Westminster in London, which was led by Urban Initiatives. The Building Heights Study sets out a baseline of the building heights in this historic part of the city and makes recommendations for where taller buildings can be located in future to minimise harm to heritage and maximise placemaking benefits.
