With over 25 years of experience in urban design, I’ve had the privilege of working on a wide range of projects across the private sector. My work primarily supports land developers and house builders in the planning, design, and implementation of functional, sustainable communities. From initial concept through to detailed planning, my goal is always to ensure that urban spaces not only look great but work well together for the people who live and work in them.
In January 2025, after 26 years at Barton Willmore now Stantec, Matt joined the Marrons Urban Design and Masterplanning team and is based out of Birmingham. Alongside the rest of the team, I work across the UK on sites of all scales, both as part of strategic land promotion and outline applications.
