Superdensity - the Sequel

Conference
Fri 22 May 2015

London’s population has recently passed its pre-war peak in 1939 of 8.6 million, with projections of 10 million people or higher by 2030. Yet the capital’s success in attracting people as well as economic growth creates a serious challenge for the provision of additional homes and infrastructure, resulting in significant pressure to densify. How can we meet people’s needs, while creating popular and lasting places rooted in our city’s distinctive urban traditions?

This breakfast talk will launch the report ‘Superdensity the sequel’ by the four leading architectural practices (HTA, Levitt Bernstein, Pollard Thomas Edwards and PRP). They will present a follow up to their 2007 report Superdensity, in which they put forward a series of recommendations for creating high-density developments that will be successful in the long-term.

Speaker include:

Andrew Beharrell, Senior Partner, Pollard Thomas Edwards
 

Andy von Bradsky, Chairman, PRP architects
 

Ben Derbyshire, Managing Director, HTA
 

Matthew Goulcher, Managing Director, Levitt Bernstein
 

Peter Murray, Chairman, NLA (Chair)
