Benefits of good design

Good design supports sustainable development, encourages healthier living, promotes accessibility and inclusivity, and contributes to safe places.

The SPPS advises that "good design can change lives, communities and neighbourhoods, bring communities together and attract business investment. It can further sustainable development and encourage healthier living; promote accessibility and inclusivity; and contribute to how safe places are and feel". This policy therefore supports regional policy and guidance and aligns with the LDP's strategic objectives.
