Author: Matthew Røss Shepherd (London, United Kingdom)
Currently working at the Commission for Architecture and the Built Environment, Matthew is a masters student of International Planning and Urban Design at the Bartlett School of Planning, UCL.
With a previous academic background in Geography and Film, as well as experience of the media industry and fringe theatre, Matthew embraces inter-disciplinary approaches to the built environment.
He scribbles, jots-down, photographs and thinks with a focus on urban creativity, urban planning, urban design, urban reserach, and well, urban everything and anything...
