Expect to see more experimentations in the colour and shape of the towers of tomorrow, according to DP Squared director Darren Paine and Enjoy Designs director Wesley Dodds.

Place North journalist Julia Hatmaker caught up with the two in Leeds ahead of the UKREiiF conference’s commencement to discuss what goes into designing and construction the country’s tallest structures, the impact of the Building Safety Act, and what the future holds in store for these skyline-defining projects.
