Autumn Lecture Series 2024: Green Belt, Grey Belt and Brownfield: How the British housing crisis happened, and how to get over it:
3. The Challenge of 21st Century Housing – A Planner’s Perspective

Thursday 7 November 2024 at 6.30pm

The Gallery, 70 Cowcross Street, London, EC1M 6EJ

Hana Loftus will explore the challenges of creating new housing at density and scale in rural areas and for new greenfield communities – and, drawing on lessons from the last 100 years – how planning might need to adapt if we are to deliver housing that meets the needs of the coming decades.

Hana Loftus is a planner and designer who has worked across the private and public sectors developing policy as well as projects. She is co-director of HAT Projects, an architecture and planning practice based in Essex, which works primarily across East Anglia, and spent four years, through Public Practice, as a planner for the Greater Cambridge Shared Planning Service developing design policy and local plans. Hana’s work has included small rural developments and major new communities, design codes and brownfield sites.
