Design Environment

Jan. 2020

Porto, PT

More information

About

How can we set up the right conditions for future high-quality developments?​
What tools might influence urban design processes before formal procedures?​
How to improve the culture of the decision-making environment?​
How can design competitions, meanwhile uses, quality audits, public-private partnerships, and other like-minded tools incentivize the quality of urban design?

​​Through analyzing different approaches and experiences, we can find better ways to respond to the challenges in the governance of urban design. Join URBAN MAESTRO for generating ideas, sharing knowledge, and trying to figure out an action plan for improving the built environment.
