2012 - 2017 About Us 2012 - 2017 ABOUT US Since our inception over 5 years ago the practice has been involved in a wide range of exciting projects in all sectors. Over this time we have experienced continued sustainable growth in what has been a challenging market. Our goal, to achieve 'understated excellence' for our clients achieved through a collaborative and ‘enjoyable’ design process. Enjoy Design is highly professional in its approach, treats every project with great respect and values the financial expenditure as if it were its own. Our experience in design and delivery covers a diverse range of projects for a distinguished client base in sectors including Commercial Office, Private and Commercial Residential, Sports & Leisure, Retail, Car Parks, Masterplanning, Industrial and Education. Based in Leeds City Centre, our philosophy is founded on a shared goal to provide a hands-on, Director led personal service in a predominately commercial market. We hold a practice ethos of approaching each project with the same high level of enthusiasm and dedication to deliver the best possible service for our clients whether it’s a small refurbishment or a large mixed-use masterplan. We have built a talented team of people that are able to offer the highest level of professional service from the initial strategic advice to the successful delivery of the project. We truly believe our people are the best. We believe that our work ethos is one of the reasons why we maintain high levels of repeat work from a core of highly valued clients. This repeat work is the highest accolade the practice can receive. A happy client means that we met and, in many cases, exceeded their aspirations.

    Resilient places cover 5/12/10 3:49 PM Page 1 resilient places | Towns, cities and landscapes are haunted by the ghosts of networks past. Disused railways, old routeways and resilient places quiet canals remain leftovers from the industry and commerce of yesteryear. Too often, these are dismissed as outdated or as the parochial interests of a few. In contrast, this pamphlet argues that the heritage character and infrastructure of the public realm can play an important part in addressing the challenges of today. Infrastructural networks shape the way that we think Samuel Jones · Melissa Mean Samuel Jones · Melissa about place. They govern the way that we connect to community in our physical environment and how places within it connect with one another. The networks of the past comprise a visible and everyday heritage that people can adapt and to which they can respond. Railways, everyday canals, sewers and industrial routeways can be reappraised, repurposed and reused to meet emerging and future needs. heritage In a world in which financial and material resources are short, this pamphlet examines detailed examples of how communities, businesses and local government have come together to make use of heritage infrastructure, and looks at lessons that they might hold more generally. The recession need not lead to a halt to development: it can prompt us to alter practice and Samuel Jones behaviours.

  • Institutional Cooperation
    Draft Agenda Second SUMP Challenge Training Workshop Institutional Cooperation 5-6 November 2013, Leeds (UK) Metro, Wellington House, 40-50 Wellington Street, Leeds, LS1 2DE CH4 Training Workshop Institutional Cooperation About the CH4LLENGE project Achieving sustainable, energy-efficient and environmentally friendly transport systems is one of the European key aims. Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans (SUMPs) are an instrument that contributes to reaching the climate and energy targets set by European leaders and is promoted by the European Commission in relevant documents such as the Transport White Paper and Urban Action Plan. Cities frequently face major barriers while creating their own Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans. Over the course of the next three years, CH4LLENGE (2013-2016) will address the four most pressing challenges in SUMP development and implementation and develop innovative and transferable solutions in the areas of: • Stakeholder participation and citizen involvement • Institutional cooperation between sectors and disciplines • Identification of the most effective policy measures • Monitoring and evaluation of progress in SUMP development Nine European cities are involved in CH4LLENGE and are grouped according to their status of sustainable urban mobility planning. The Optimising Cities of Amiens, Dresden, Gent and the county of West Yorkshire have all worked extensively with SUMPs and will optimise their SUMP processes in the four thematic areas. The Advancing Cities of Brno, Budapest, Krakow, Timisoara and Zagreb are ambitious partners from New Member States and currently moving towards sustainable urban mobility planning. The Optimising Cities will assist them in developing strategies and implementing pilots in all four challenges. CH4LLENGE also supports 26 Follower Cities outside the consortium which are committed to improving their mobility planning.

There are many possible walking routes around central Leeds that allow residents and visitors to observe some of the undoubted success stories but also to contemplate some of the problems accompanying rapid development and regeneration. Ongoing debate about successes and failures is healthy if this leads to better understanding of the forces, both national and local, that shape the contemporary townscape and that may prevent costly mistakes from being made in future.
