Last week, our London studio celebrated the thrilling debut of The Good City, a global endeavor dedicated to improving urban environments worldwide, in partnership with Nippon Koei. The event featured insightful presentations from prominent industry leaders, including Roger Madelin CBE of BRITISH LAND REAL ESTATE LIMITED, as well as diverse viewpoints from experts hailing from cities such as Lima, New Delhi, Toronto, and Tokyo. Indeed, Design Director and Senior Associate Harim Labuschagne was also among the distinguished speakers who spoke about this initiative and the challenges and opportunities Toronto is facing during its current rapid growth period. Supported by The Academy of Urbanism, the debut involved tackling city-specific challenges and discussing practical strategies. Concurrently, the Asia-Pacific launch took place in Kuala Lumpur, reflecting the initiative's global reach. The Good City microsite serves as the showcase for the initiative, acting as a central hub for leveraging our collective expertise and outlining our vision for creating better cities for all. These events represent the start of a worldwide effort to improve city living through innovations in energy use, low-carbon transport and buildings, and the optimization of technology and data.

We're excited to share that Adrian Price, Principal and lead of our London-based retail-led mixed-use team, was featured on The Construction Record Podcast™ by ConstructConnect! In conversation with Warren Frey, Adrian dives deep into the creative and technical intricacies of designing The Well’s retail arcade and canopy, the centerpiece of this mixed-use development in downtown Toronto. A focal point of this conversation was the sculptural glazed canopy designed by BDP, which crowns the three-storey retail arcade, providing cover from weather while offering an open-air ambiance unlike anywhere else in North America. The design ensures that The Well will stand as a beacon of contemporary urban development, merging residences, offices, and retail spaces into a dynamic "micro-city." 🎧 Don't miss out on this compelling conversation and discover more about the distinct design elements that make The Well a landmark development.

Here is a sneak peak to what’s in works for Valhalla Village – a new mixed-use community designed by BDP Quadrangle for KingSett Capital. This project will feature affordable housing designed to be zero carbon ready that will use an all pre-cast structure and façade. We recently visited the Modular Precast Systems(MPS) factory to review the modular precast mockup. The project will incorporate modular construction, including floors, structure (beams and columns), and an envelope with preinstalled windows. This total precast solution will significantly reduce on-site construction time and assist us in meeting our sustainability targets. Want to learn more about the project?
