A landscape led approach to town planning and design: A repurposed National Model Design Code?



Helen Flage constructs the case for a landscape led approach to planning and design, prioritising spaces and routes for people and nature with green infrastructure used as a key structuring element. This is in contradistinction to the street, block and public square as organising principles.
Formerly with the Homes and Communities Agency, URBED, GVA, EDAW and Turley Associates,
Helen is Principal Strategic Planning Officer at North Hertfordshire District Council.
‘Good design is a key aspect of sustainable development and is indivisible from good planning’.
