Watford Borough Council

As Urban Designer for Watford Borough Council, Johnny is working with the Borough’s recently commissioned 3D model of the Borough to consider what the potential applications of the model are, how they can use the model to meet the needs of their customers and community, and how it might be commercialised to reduce ongoing costs. He is also exploring how the 3D model may be used to assist in both developing the strategies and masterplans for a number of key regeneration projects and in improving the quality of community engagement relating to these projects."
