Francis Tibbalds Prize

URBAN DESIGN, the quarterly journal of the Urban Design Group, has announced a new prize for urban design projects.

Entries are being sought from practices and public sector offices. Those assessed to be the best eight in terms of their contribution to urban design thought and ideas will receive an URBAN DESIGN journal project award and be featured in that journal over the following twelve months.

At the end of this period Urban Design Group members will vote for the best project, which will receive the Francis Tibbalds Prize, worth £1,000. You need to be a practice or a local authority member of the UDG to submit an entry.

Francis Tibbalds was founding chairman of the Urban Design Group in 1978 and president of the RTPI in 1988. He died in 1992. His urban design consultancy continues as Tibbalds Planning and Urban Design.
