India's burning hot market; Redefining Liverpool's waterfront and major, mixed use masterplan unveiled in the UK
BDP (Building Design Partnership Ltd)
We are an international, multidisciplinary practice of architects, engineers, designers and urbanists.
With a scorching maximum temperature of over 50°C and a minimum of 28°C, Delhi and most of India is burning hot. But it's not just the weather that's heating up - passionate rhetoric and political grandstanding is on the rise as we wrap up the last phase of polling in one of the world’s largest democracies.
Loved and hated, in equal measure, India’s prime minister, Narendra Modi and his party are expected to return into power. The results of our national election, expected on June 4th, are anticipated to bring continued political stability.
This stability is crucial as India races towards significant economic growth, currently being the world's fifth-largest economy and growing rapidly at 6.8 percent. By 2027, India is projected to surpass Germany and Japan to become the third largest global economy, with a GDP of $7.3 trillion. Positioned to remain the fastest-growing major economy, India's resilience amid global geopolitical challenges is remarkable. The booming real estate sector and rapid urbanisation present a wealth of opportunities for international investors.

As the world grapples with defining socially progressive architecture in the 21st century, Isabelle Priest, Managing Editor at the RIBA Journal, examines its relevance and the need for renewed commitment to the common good.
It’s well known that BDP was established as a socially progressive practice. It was founded by George Grenfell-Baines as a multidisciplinary firm underpinned by the belief that the professions involved in designing buildings and, at the time, increasingly districts and places, should work together as one.

Grenfell-Baines was inspired by left-wing idealism. The practice flourished as construction did too – the first motorways, new towns, new universities, housing for all, designated shopping districts to serve burgeoning consumerism and improving standards of living.

The new masterplan for the Broad Marsh project in the middle of the city will see more than 1,000 new homes built alongside around 20,000 sqm of office, commercial and leisure space.
Part of the old shopping centre’s structural frame will be retained under the plans, which outlines a strategic direction and design intent to transform the area, create opportunities to live and work and bring investment and employment for local businesses.

Sensory perception is the use of the various senses in our possession (on a basic level: hearing, vision, taste, touch or smell) to gain a better understanding of the world around us. The sensory experience is often overlooked when making design decisions, or quite simply people are unsure how to incorporate them. In any case, the interplay between different sensory stimuli is not well represented by existing best practice guidance.
When one of our senses is impeded or overloaded, it can hinder our full and effective participation in society. By considering a sensory approach to design, we can support a more inclusive environment for people with heightened, reduced, or complete loss of one of their senses. We can support neurodiversity and make spaces that work for all.
