As a resident of the Old Kent Road and co-founder of the architecture practice what if: projects, Ulrike Steven has led several collaborative initiatives that creatively engage with planning processes, meaningfully contributing to the regeneration of the Old Kent Road area where 20,000 new homes, the size of a new town, will transform the urban landscape.
The series of projects listed below are the result of collaborative efforts involving many neighbors, local businesses, architecture students, the what if: projects team and the community interest group Action OKR / Peckham Weeklies. The immense amount of time volunteered and the professional pro bono support provided were invaluable and essential in making this work possible.
