RIBA West Midlands Rethinking Housing: Does Density Matter?

RIBA West Midlands hosts an in-person debate on the future of housing, cities and the places we create. The discussion brings together different perspectives to explore the challenges and opportunities involved in delivering more homes while still maintaining strong design quality and long-term liveability.

The event focuses on the balance between density, demand and design, asking what successful urban density looks like, how housing should respond to local character and infrastructure, and what role higher-density development should play in creating sustainable communities. It also looks at the pressures faced by planners, architects, developers and communities as they decide how best to shape new development.

Attendees can expect a lively, thought-provoking conversation about housing delivery, the built environment and the decisions that will shape communities for generations to come.
