October’s design review saw the panel looking at two proposals for retirement communities, a masterplan for a residential development in the Black Country and a supermarket proposal for a sensitive market town site.

In the coming months we will be looking at a primary school in Solihull, two residential schemes and a new YMCA facility.

There is still one place available at the December panel meeting and plenty of places in the new year. Contact Bianca Fowler bianca@made.org.uk or phone 0121 363 0064 to discuss bringing your scheme.

Meanwhile CABE have published their review of the proposed Kingswood Energy From Waste Facility near Great Wryley in Staffordshire. Details here.
