We’ve recently completed a series of façade upgrades at Boulevard Retail Park in Peterborough, delivering a unified and modern aesthetic across several key units.

Dunelm, Dreams and Lee Longlands now showcase bold new frontages following extensive improvements including the removal of dated canopies, the introduction of eye-catching signage towers with expanded branding zones for enhanced visibility and the installation of larger curtain walling to achieve a sleek, contemporary finish.

The evolution of the park continues, with upcoming enhancements planned for Furniture Village and Carpetright.

The project included Dave’s first public consultation and was also the first scheme he designed that went on to be built, marking an important step in his career at Urban Edge.

In the second part of our PD-BR series, we sit dow

In the second part of our PD-BR series, we sit down with Director and Founder, Tom McNamara, to explore why Principal Designer - Building Regulations (PD-BR) is fast becoming a cornerstone of responsible architecture.

From early-stage compliance to preserving design integrity, Tom unpacks how PD-BR protects clients’ long-term interests. He challenges the misconception that compliance is a constraint, showing instead how it enables creativity and clarity when integrated early.

With two distinct Principal Designer roles and serious legal duties at play, it’s vital to understand the nuances before making key decisions. At Urban Edge, we’re here to guide you - reach out to our team to ensure your project is compliant and confidently managed from day one.
