IHBC writes on the IHBC CPD Branch Partnership for ‘Placemaking and Design Codes’
… The training would address different aspects of placemaking, design and planning for historic places.
The CPD event would address the following themes:
Planning for heritage: Considering place-making as an integral part of planning for heritage, including strategies, policies, local and neighbourhood plans, site-planning and management plans.
Placemaking and design policy and codes: The relationship between design evidence and analysis, design codes, design policy and design guidance and how and where to use each.
Legislation, policy and guidance: The statutory basis for design and placemaking and design, including legislation, policy and guidance.
Evidence, Tools and Methodologies: Placemaking evidence, including designations, character, economic data and evidence on use trends. Also, tools and methodologies, such as Place-check, High Street Task Force 25 priorities and the IHBC toolbox.
Understanding context: design in historic areas, including townscape analysis, understanding polite architecture and vernacular buildings, contemporary and green design, etc.
Theory/Philosophy: How conservation, architectural, planning and urban theories/philosophies, concepts and movements inform placemaking in historic areas.
Economics: The socio-economic values of ‘place’ and heritage, especially in achieving more sustainable and inclusive forms of development, growth and regeneration.
The training will consider Effective Practices, including good and poor practice examples.
The training would address various IHBC competences, including philosophy and theory, practice, design and presentations, historic and architectural interest, legislation and policy and economics.
