Director Constanze Leibrock was among a number of industry experts invited to speak at the NLA half day conference in association with Design South East.

The projected growth for London and the South East - which accommodates one third of the population - will mean the provision of new homes, infrastructure and jobs over the coming decades. The half day conference posed the question of how we make sure quality is at the heart of new development and asked what we can learn from different models of growth.

As part of a panel including; Patrick Clarke, Director of Design, Planning and Economics at Aecom, Davide Tittle, Head of Design Advice at Design South East and Jennifer Ross, Director at Tibbalds, Constanze presented recent work by the practice focussed on creating new communities in edge locations.
