Collaboration in the City

This seminar, organised by the Royal Incorporation of Architects in Scotland and the Urban Design Group, aims to show the complexities of the stakeholders dealing with the creation of our cities.

Cities need cohesive thinking to avoid fragmentation and that is why a collaborative approach between architects and urban designers is required to create successful cities.

The event will be chaired by Neil Baxter (RIAS) and Jo White (UDG Scotland) and feature Oliver Chapman, Director of Oliver Chapman Architects, Edinburgh, Gill Henry, Project Manager at Glasgow School of Art and Robert Huxford, Urban Design Group Director.

Our speakers will explore the built environment process from three different angles; the architect / urban designer, the client and the theorist, focussing on ways of working between architects / urban designers within a Scottish context.

The seminar is aimed at architects, urban designers, planners, policy makers and people involved in the built environment.
