Urban design workshops draw upon a wide range of expertise in a concentrated event that might typically take place over a day or over a weekend. This is particularly suited to complex urban design issues which require a broader level of examination and a raised awareness of latent opportunities. These would normally be led by eminent practitioners working with local professionals, decision makers and interested lay people, culminating in a public exhibition and critical discussion about the way forward.
The centre has recently carried out an Issues and Opportunities Workshop, supporting Kerrier District Council on Redruth Corridor a major site within their Local Development Framework.
The 1 day design workshop engaged landowners and key stakeholders in very early discussions and design exercises for a major redevelopment opportunities of an important site of approximately 3.5 ha in central Redruth.
