A guide to our Built Environment Experts A guide to our Built Environment Experts 2 Built Environment Experts (BEEs) Design Council is England’s National champion for design in the built environment. We are committed to demonstrating how good design improves our built environment, stimulates innovation and provides better places for people to live and work in. Our work includes advising the government and providing support to local authorities, communities and the private sector in promoting and delivering good design. Support is provided through expert advice, practical hands-on help and training. Our model of delivery focuses on having a small core team of dedicated and skilled staff based in London, supported by 400 multidisciplinary Built Environment Experts (BEEs) that bring together an unprecedented breadth of expertise. National experts and specialists in public health, inclusion, SMART and culture, are joined by experts in planning, built environment and design, creating an interdisciplinary network of skills and experience. Together, we offer knowledge, insight, inspiration and best practice to clients across England. Their involvement is critical in offering independent advice on design in the built environment, ensuring that we create places and spaces that improve everyone’s quality of life.

Where they are from How BEEs work We believe good design is essential to the creation of successful places, and is fundamental to the planning system. To support this, Design Council produces support at all stages of the development process, from visioning and concept development through to the occupancy, management and maintenance of buildings and spaces. We assist a range of clients from community groups and Local Authority Planning Departments, to developers and healthcare professionals. BEEs play a vital role in the delivery of this work. This may include one-to-one working with an individual client or small group, or as part of a review panel. BEEs may also work directly with Design Council staff to develop best practice advice, help shape our policy position, or participate as an expert in topic-specific focus groups. BEEs provide inspiration and reflect good practice in giving clients the understanding and confidence to apply the principles of good design, to achieve great outcomes for people and raise standards within the built environment.
