Designing Places: A Policy Statement for Scotland

Introduction

This, the first policy statement on designing places in Scotland, marks the Scottish Executive's determination to raise standards of urban and rural development.

Description

Designing Places sets out the policy context for important areas of planning policy, design guidance, professional practice, and education and training. It is aimed at everyone who plays a part in shaping the built environment, whether as politicians, developers, planners, designers, opinion-formers or anyone else whose attitudes have a direct or indirect influence on what gets built. The statement's themes will be developed in further documents with more detailed operational guidance.
