Next UDF to focus on Queensland
As usual, there is a lot happening in Queensland but, being a modest lot, they have been a bit slow to tell us about it! So the December edition of Urban Design Forum will have a strong Queensland flavour, including articles from the recent Gold Coast conference, a report on the new Board of Urban Places - a non-statutory, expert panel to advise on urban planning in Queensland, chaired by State Government architect Philip Follent, what’s new with Queensland Urban Design Alliance, Brisbane City Council, and hopefully something from the regions as well.
