About AR Urbanism

We are urbanists. We specialise in city shaping, visioning, and masterplanning and work across the entire built environment spectrum—collaborating with the public sector, government agencies, private developers, and architects to realise transformative places. Rooted in public value. Our practice is grounded in the belief that successful development must serve the long-term needs of the community. We have strong experience working alongside local authorities and we understand that "social value" and "sustainability" are not just regulatory hurdles but the foundations of enduring places. We design with empathy, ensuring our strategies align with the civic priorities of the towns and cities we work in. Bridging the gap For our private sector and architectural partners, this perspective allows us to navigate complex planning environments. We know that the most resilient projects are those that transparently align commercial ambition with public good. Our approach is not to sell a scheme but rather to build consensus by showing how the development enhances its surrounding context and benefits local communities. We work with both public and private sector clients in the development, property and environment industries, enabling the planning process through sound urban design expertise. Typical projects integrate advice and design and these range from strategic design and site-specific master planning, to Design and Access Statements, Building for Life Assessments, Urban Design Risk Assessments, and Expert Evidence for Public Inquiries and Hearings. We also deliver public realm strategies, town centre regeneration initiatives, wayfinding and connectivity studies and streetscape design, as well as the evaluation of urban design schemes.
