ReshapedPlace in our hearts: are we all placemakers now? Mary Parsons, Chair of the Town & Country Planning AssociationWe still struggle to get the basics right when we build homes and places, thinks Mary Parsons.

Planners, designers, builders and developers need to think even harder about quality and less about quantity, she argues. Which means understanding what people really need and avoiding our recent tendency to build-in obsolescence.2020-12-1310 min
