What can you do with VU.CITY?

In your words

“We’re bringing in architects and our clients and different consultants in one room and we’re viewing the drawing, the architecture and the massing through VU.CITY.”

Charlotte Orrell

Senior Planner at Iceni Projects

“VU.CITY helps us make faster decisions on site feasibility. With the platform’s tools and data, we can quickly understand site opportunities and constraints, work more collaboratively with the project team, community and local authority, ultimately helping us reduce risk and abortive costs throughout the planning process.”

David Barnett

CEO & Founder - Londonewcastle

"VU.CITY is helping us analyse projects at an early stage and refine elements of our live projects faster and more accurately. Being able to quickly assess a site or stress test things like massing and planning context provides us with more clarity and objectivity that would previously have taken us a lot longer to achieve."

Jack Hawkins

Development Manager - Londonewcastle

"VU.CITY allows us to quickly understand the feasibility of a site, in context and get rapid feedback from our project stakeholders. It helps us reduce time wasted waiting on feedback from key decision makers, by enabling real-time collaboration across a number of teams."

Nick Hayden Hub

Nick Hayden - Senior Design Manager, Mount Anvil

"Development and architecture are embracing technology at a rapid rate but many ideas are impractical or premature and don’t work. The VU.CITY platform is already making an essential difference to design and planning decisions in London and clearly will go much further."

Sir Stuart Lipton

Co-founder - Lipton Rogers

The platform is really helping us communicate those kinds of insights among our consultant team which then enables for a faster and more insightful decision making process.
