Urban Design
Responsive to place and community, our urban design teams focus on creating thoughtful, people-centred solutions that shape sustainable and resilient places. We work across a range of scales, from individual sites to city-wide strategies, and collaborate with local stakeholders using tailored participation and consultation. Our expertise spans mixed-use masterplans, transit-oriented development, urban regeneration and new settlements.
This way of working underpins BDP’s Good City Initiative, a collaboration across BDP and Nippon Koei that champions well-designed, sustainable and resilient places, addressing the complex needs of modern cities.
