A Celebration of HRH The Prince of Wales’s Influence on the Built Environment
November 16, 2008 - November 23, 2008
The Prince of Wales believes that the built environment has an enormous influence on the quality of people's lives, and that more can be done to create homes, offices and public buildings which encourage a sense of community and pride of place, in the process fostering the well-being of those who live there and alleviating social problems. The task of putting this thinking into practice falls primarily to The Prince's Foundation for the Built Environment, an educational charity set up by HRH in 1998; the year that The Prince of Wales published his book A Vision of Britain to highlight the plight of many UK towns and cities and the need for their sensitive regeneration.
This exciting exhibition celebrates the long term contribution of His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales's work in the built environment, facilitates His Royal Highness's aspirations for the future and showcases The Foundation's timeless and environmentally-conscious work from the last decade.
