    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • Throughout the Insight I was given the opportunity to participate observe and be assigned a variety of different Urban Design related tasks which involved me to develop my own creativity given free reign to get tasks done. Both virtual and in person meetings cemented my understanding of different aspects within the Savills business where each detail of how each sector of the topic was explained clearly. I was also provided with useful feedback on my own personal work and was able to ask questions which were all answered thoughtfully.
