Anna leads Space Syntax’s consulting activities in the UK, USA and continental Europe. She has extensive experience in advising public and private clients at all scales of design, from urban planning strategies to complex building proposals.
Her expertise is in the optimisation of spatial layout designs for the benefit of building users, pedestrians and cyclists (circulation, safety and conviviality) as well as the performance of the built environment (retail revenue, land value and carbon intensity).
