Innovation & development can lift the human spirit – Latest

In the second video of our new series, Richard Baldwin, Head of Development at Derwent London, ponders on the role of engineers within the built environment, and how innovation and development can lift the human spirit.

“Engineering is all part of architecture, making sure the building stands up, it’s also making sure that it’s economical, and it’s about creating volume and space. Clever engineers can stretch the performance of materials like concrete and steel to give more volume to buildings.”

Our video series showcases reflections of some of the most influential figures in the built environment on how engineering contributes to a better society. The short films will deliver a diverse array of thoughts and ideas from throughout our industry, including journalists, architects, designers, developers and of course engineers!
