Stakeholder Views on Value and Urban Design
The value added by better urban design has for some time been contested. Nevertheless, the benefits of identifying a linkage between better urban design and enhanced economic value, as well as social and environmental value, are potentially significant. This article reports on one part of a recent research study that attempted to explore this linkage. It examines a review of stakeholder views on value and urban design on the basis of six case studies of varying urban design quality. The research method and case studies are briefly outlined, before the detailed views of key stakeholders--investors, developers, designers, occupiers, local authorities and everyday users--are presented and conclusions drawn. A key finding is that the benefits of better urban design are increasingly acknowledged across all key stakeholder groups, albeit in different ways and forms.
