Urban R+D

Urban R+D We are Hackney-based architects that survey the city recording underutilised space and inefficiencies in the urban fabric.

Our Negative Space survey is a community-centred and architect-led push to responsibly source opportunities for a more considerate form of urban development. We are educated and impartial observers of the city, enablers of responsible development and activators of space.

Thanks for all the support everybody. Loads more information about our work is on our website - www.urbanrandd.com. If any of ye are on Twitter we could do with ye following us - we'll be posting stuff here when we can. We plan on expanding our survey across central London next year so need all the support we can get to convince Local and City Authorities to back us. It's an ambitious plan, but we're looking forward to the challenge. Exciting times ahead!
