TRANSFORMING THE URBAN LANDSCAPE COMPETITION

TRANSFORMING THE URBAN LANDSCAPE COMPETITION CREATING A VISION FOR POST-COVID-19 STREETS AND SPACES. The Landscape Institute’s latest international design competition reveals the future shape of the high street.

‘Although we are the authors and the curators of this public realm vision, the real praise should go to the scientists, researchers and engineers who are already developing many of the technologies that we illustrated in our proposal that will help society tackle the climate emergency. Over the coming months we are intending to reach out to these, and other organisations so that we can have a better understanding of these emerging technologies,to inform our design processes and ensure Gillespies projects are as sustainable as possible. ‘The real challenge of course is how we make these ‘ideas’ a reality and we have already started working on some thoughts... ‘This has always been more than just a competition for us... it is the start of a green revolution!’ Adam Greatrix Associate Partner GILLESPIES LLP
