BUSINESS LIFE:COMMERCIAL PROPERTY:Blueprint is launched
KNIGHT Frank has launched its blueprint for mixed-use development entitled, 'Mixed-Use, Art or Science?'
which sets out the Knight Frank view on how to deliver a mixed-use scheme to the market.
The report has been issued as Knight Frank Birmingham reveal their increasing involvement in providing strategic and
real time knowledge of mixed use schemes to a number of clients living and working in emerging Eastern European towns
and cities such as Prague and Moscow.
Mixed-use is the latest sector to shape and influence the property industry and this research has been written by
Knight Frank's mixed-use research team to look at the emergence and future trends of this rapidly evolving
sector.
Mark Swallow, head of Knight Frank in Birmingham and head of the commercial team, said: "The culture of merging
traditionally separate skills to deal with mixed use schemes adopted by many property agents must continue to evolve to
ensure continued success, not only here in Birmingham but the UK and Europe too. The Knight Frank blueprint outlines how
best to do this.
"We are on the world stage and overseas companies have witnessed the success of many mixed use schemes here in
the region including Brindleyplace and The Mailbox developments and recognise the ability and knowledge of all those
involved.
"We have experienced a growing number of approaches for advice from our European property counterparts and have
already introduced several prospective investors from the region to European schemes."
