Independent and impartial Design Review

We believe in the value of good design...

We offer industry leading design review, focussing on Yorkshire and the Humber, delivering expert, independent multi-disciplinary advice on plans, policies, and projects.

Design review is recognised in the NPPF as a tool to improve design outcomes in the built environment, and can help design teams and local authorities to better achieve the principles set out in the NPPF and the National Design Guide.

We work closely with government agencies, local planning authorities, developers and design teams to deliver positive, engaging and interactive reviews at all stages of the design process.

Our panel covers a range of disciplines and specialisms including: architecture, urban design, planning, landscape architecture, engineering, ecology, heritage and conservation, movement and transport.

A full list of our panel members can be found here (opens in a new window).
