The Commission for Architecture and the Built Environment (CABE) has added a raft of experts to its ranks.
The design review panel, which scrutinises applications for significant schemes, including the redevelopment of Battersea Power Station and Chavasse Park, will take on eight members.
Martin Moore (pictured), MD of Prudential’s property team, will join the panel, as will David Rudlin, a masterplanner at Urbed, and engineer Jane Wernick.
The other appointees all work for architects firms. They are Nancy Cogswell of the Mansur Practice, Andrew Grant of landscape architect Andrew Grant Associates, Pankaj Patel of Patel Taylor, John Worthington of DEGW and Leeds city architect John Thorp.
Elsewhere, the position of regional co-ordinator will be taken by Annie Hollobone, award scheme manager at the Millennium Commission. Ben van Bruggen, an urban designer and planner at the London Borough of Greenwich, has been made design review programme officer.
Miriam Fitzpatrick, an architect with Feilden Clegg, and Selina Mason of Long & Kentish architects, will take on the role of enabling programme officer.
CABE has also appointed over 100 members to its enabling panel, all of them drawn from construction, architecture, local government and property surveying.
Jon Rouse, CABE chief executive, said: “Our new teams of experts from diverse backgrounds across the construction industry are going to make CABE an even more effective force in ensuring that new buildings and public spaces throughout the country are of the best possible quality.”
