Calvert

The practice was appointed to prepare a strategic masterplan for a visionary new settlement as part of the Oxford-Cambridge Arc of development and infrastructure intensification.

The emergence of new infrastructure provision in the form of east-west rail, the expressway, an HS2 and their convergence at Calvert unlock its potential as a new city; with built-in infrastructure and energy generation from first principles.

Development principles established by our team build upon the hub status of the site’s strategic location, providing a framework for development to grow.

A new city set into the landscape, enabling a different environment to that of Milton Keynes, Oxford, or Cambridge; a distinctive place meeting the needs of an evolving economy and shifting demographics.
