The future of housing must be intergenerational.,Â
It begins with designing places where older people can thrive, not just live.
At @FestivalOfPlace, our Founder @Tanisha_rr chaired a panel on Healthy Homes and Intergenerational Living 🏡
Joined by Charlotte Miller, Jude Leighton and Simon Beck, the panel explored:
◾️ Intergenerational housing as a scalable model
◾️ Co-design with older residents
◾️ How policy, funding & private sector can unlock age-inclusive places
Designing for older people isn’t niche, it’s foundational.

Public art is placemaking in motion.
Each 15 April, World Art Day celebrates how creativity shapes society, expresses diverse identities & supports sustainable development. Art isn’t just in galleries - it lives in our streets, walls, parks & public spaces.
#ConceptCulture
We’re spotlighting artworks that tell the story of a place, by reflecting who we are, where we’ve been, and where we’re going.
