Description
The attainment of urban and architectural design quality is an integral objective of DC15. Our urban environment cannot afford to have a low-quality built fabric – a fabric that produces bland, repetitive blocks that are discordant with the older components of the street and, in the worst cases, kill the spirit of our streets due to the negative impact that is created in visual, social and environmental terms; a fabric characterised by dead façades, blank walls and exposed services that scar our townscapes, streetscapes and skylines; a fabric that is wasteful on land and energy resources without seeking to minimise this impact by providing a positive contribution in energy terms; a fabric that does not consider the consequences it might have on the neighbouring residential amenity.
