The Australian Institute of Architects has welcomed the launch of the design policy Better Placed by NSW Planning Minister Anthony Roberts this morning.<\/p>\n

\u2018New South Wales needs to continue to become a better place to live in\u2019, the Institute\u2019s NSW Chapter President Andrew Nimmo said today.<\/p>\n

\u2018The new policy will help to deliver a higher quality of new development and great places as we meet the challenges of an increasing population.<\/p>\n

\u2018Investing in the design process at the early stage of projects saves time and cost and leads to more responsive, resilient, healthy, integrated and equitable precincts, towns and cities.<\/p>\n

\u2018Architects are highly skilled at applying the process of research, analysis, collaboration and concept testing described in the policy\u2019, Mr Nimmo said. \u2018The Institute\u2019s annual NSW Architecture Awards are an example of this and recognise and celebrate architectural design excellence in all its forms.<\/p>\n

\u2018The seven objectives in the policy establish the framework for assessing new projects as part of the design review process, he said.<\/p>\n

\u2018The policy also provides the rationale for the \u2018good design\u2019 object we anticipate will be introduced into the planning legislation later this year.<\/p>\n

\u2018The policy is a significant achievement by the Government Architect NSW following the office\u2019s move to the planning portfolio and its strategic focus on design as the key to transforming and improving the NSW built environment.<\/p>\n

\u2018We applaud the Minister for supporting this holistic and innovative design policy, and through our members are ready to work with the Government to help ensure that the ambitions of this policy are fully and properly realised\u2019.<\/p>\n

Chief Executive Officer of the Institute, Jennifer Cunich added, \u2018The Institute would like to see similar quality-based policy throughout the country, as we believe that good design yields a dividend for all stakeholders, that is returned not just in the immediate term, but over the lifetime of a well-designed and delivered built environment\u2019.<\/p>\n
