Suburban Futures Exhibition

This thought-provoking exhibition sets out the key issues and asks how we might make outer urban areas more sustainable. It shows some of the solutions currently being put forward, both for existing neighbourhoods and newly created ones. These include innovative housing forms that accommodate more people within the same ‘footprint’ alongside proposals for sustainable urban extensions and ‘eco-towns’.
