Ever been the only single person in the room? The pressure to conform can cause untold grief at dinner parties. It also happens to be the single greatest blight on the built environment.

The brief calls for a sustainable set of site offices that could be demountable and re-used on different Urban Splash sites across the country. These would not only have to provide a robust working environment for site personnel, but also act as a landmark building signalling Urban Splash’s presence within the local area.

The all day workshop looks at space standards and the 21st century home and aims to rekindle the debate around space standards within a 21st century context. It will examine the evidence around a number of agendas within which space standards overlap, with an emphasis on what constitutes design quality, functionality, liveability and fitness for purpose. Friday 23rd November 2007, 9.30am to 3.30pm RIBA, 66 Portland Place, London, W1B 1AD

The project incorporates an office for the Urban Splash (Midlands) Ltd. and their development team, but is primarily to provide a landmark Marketing Suite for the Walsall Waterfront development.

Our cities and townscapes have to reflect the messy unpredictability of those who live in them. Attempts to impose order by micro-managing every masterplan will end in lifeless homogeneity – which is the enemy of beauty
