Lines on London

Article Abstract:

'Drawing on London' was a three-day workshop in which urban designers and architects looked at using their skills on neglected urban sites on which traditional development processes had failed. The man behind the project was Richard MacCormac, president of the RIBA, who believes that the renewal of our cities depends on bridging the gap between the planning process and the process of developing and designing buildings.
