VeloCity Selected to Develop a Green Vision for Blenheim Estate

VeloCity, an interdisciplinary collaboration including Petra Marko (Marko&Placemakers), Annalie Riches (Mikhail Riches), Sarah Featherstone (Featherstone Young), Kay Hughes (Khaa), Judith Sykes (Expedition Engineering) and Jennifer Ross (Tibbalds) have been commissioned to develop a green vision for Blenheim Estate. The vision for the 810ha estate surrounding the Grade I-listed Blenheim Palace in Oxfordshire addresses the most critical issues facing rural communities today, including social and health inequality, lack of connectivity and declining community facilities such as schools, shops and pubs. The place-based vision proposes incremental change over three decades and will seek to support the estate’s ambition to become the UK’s first carbon-negative land manager.
