Paul Monaghan and the Office for Place: Beauty is not shorthand for 'traditional'

Paul Monaghan, architect and co-founder of Allford Hall Monaghan Morris, talks about his role on the advisory board for The Office for Place, a government body helping to shape design codes and neighbourhood plans in England. Announced in July 2021, having emerged out of the Building Better Building Beautiful Commission, the purpose of the Office for Place is “to make it easier for all neighbourhood communities, wherever they might be, to require what they find beautiful and refuse what they find ugly.” Monaghan explains why he's pleased the government is passionate about design quality, even if he's not entirely comfortable with its new favourite buzzword: ‘beauty’ Support our podcast and also get the magazine
