‘Designing Productive Cities’ will explore the framework required for creating today’s cities, the process of designing and shaping our
cities to make them more functional, attractive and sustainable. We will examine affordable housing and diversity for ‘Gen Y’ who are interested in more compact design models. For the rapidly growing ageing population sector, we will discuss isolation, location, ease of transport, mobility and affordability. Conference streams will include: Visualisation; Strategic Planning; Whole City Thinking; Urban Design Projects; Active Transport; International Design; Issues in Construction; Financing for Compact Cities.
