KENT DESIGN
URBAN DESIGN SPRING SCHOOL



MA Urban Design and Master of Architecture students at CSA will attend this year’s Urban Design Spring School. Organised by Kent Design, the two-day event will be based in Chatham, a Medway town with a rich military and industrial history, now experiencing housing growth and transformation in its public realm.

Like in previous years, the Urban Design School will be an intensive and immersive mix of small group tutorials led by some of the UK’s leading practitioners, practical design workshops, group presentations and discussions, and inspirational talks. Participants will be masterplanning a site themselves, thereby gaining an insight into the masterplanning process, and practical skills associated with developing a plan. The format provides an opportunity for experienced practitioners as well as non-urban-designers, in planning, architecture and other disciplines to develop their place-making skills, their understanding of design ‘in between buildings’ and their ability to assess schemes in urban design terms.
