Summary0–0the0benefits0of0design0quality...0
• Strong and distinctive design solutions (supported by reasoned argument) will help to smooth the path to a successful planning consent
• Schemes with a clear sense of identity and ‘place’ help to create a marketing edge for clients
• Developments that are the product of a rigorous design process are more likely to have lasting appeal
• Schemes that are supported by stakeholders and the community will engender civic pride and ‘ownership’
