From Design Policy to Design Quality

This guide offers a framework for the development of a comprehensive range of design policies for a community strategy, local development frameworks and action plans. In the wake of the 2000 Urban White paper, the 2001 Planning Green Paper, the formation of the inter-professional Urban Design Alliance, and the increasingly influential work of the Commission for Architecture & the Built Environment (CABE), this is the ideal time to further the role of planning in promoting design quality. The key recommendations of this publication extend the urban design guidelines issued by the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister and CABE, and relate to urban, suburban and rural contexts alike. In total, 20 key recommendations are made, under four headings, offering working directions for local authorities and designers/planners charged with implementing and monitoring design policies at the local level within development plans.
