Guide to Specification – Northern Seminar

Put your questions to the team who edited the guide and discover how it is engaging the needs of occupiers, leading and informing the agenda on sustainable development and setting a new benchmark for standards of best practice in design.

This seminar will demonstrate how the guide has evolved – reflecting significant changes in design practice over the last four years – and will present new research on occupancy density and internal temperature.
