London’s Green Belt has long been a point of contention - is it untouchable countryside, an underused reserve, or a chance to rethink how we can harmonise homes, industry, mobility, energy and habitat?
Studio Egret West’s proposition for the GREAT Belt looks beyond the simple “green vs. grey” debate - the aim is not to choose between nature and development, but to imagine how we can transform the edge of London to become Growing, Resilient, Energising, Accessible, and Thriving.
We hosted SEW & TELL in our showroom in Clerkenwell, London. Maysa Phares, Senior Associate of Studio Egret West opened up the discussion. Then Pat Hayes, Executive Director of Regeneration, Housing and Environment at Slough, and Cherie Ho from Ravensbourne University, will be joining as guest speakers.
