Urbanism

BDP’s urbanists undertake masterplanning, urban design, town planning and landscape design projects for clients worldwide.

Our experience ranges from the scale of the region and the metropolis to that of quarters, districts, neighbourhoods and the individual urban blocks, streets and spaces that make up the cities we inhabit. BDP’s design led multidisciplinary approach creates places for people; that are socially, economically and environmentally sustainable and also culturally appropriate to each location where we are invited to work.

We work collaboratively with clients and communities to understand local aspirations and context and then to bring forward shared visions and, ultimately, to deliver new urban environments that are welcoming and inclusive. Through BDP Cities we also invest in research and debate about the future of cities and urban spaces.

We aim to provide world-class solutions, using our renowned and highly experienced urbanism teams comprising urban designers, town planners, landscape architects, masterplanners, engineers and sustainability experts. With urbanism teams based in each of our studios, we can combine local presence and knowledge with the best of BDP’s wider network of experts, to ensure the right skills and experience for every project.

Our urbanism team operates as an independent consultancy. Here are some of the clients and partners with whom we have had the pleasure of working with over the years. As you will see our clients span the globe and cover both public and private sectors and are from many different and varied organisations. Clients list.
