I thought it might be useful to put up some links to Ramboll's involvement in the LFA in previous years.
In 2008 Ramboll ran a Greening Bays design competition on Store Street where 14 parking bays were transformed for a day into 'sustainable urban interventions'. The entrants were extremely diverse, a gallery of some of them can be seen here, its well worth a look.

2010 saw a number of Ramboll projects entered, the most striking of which was The Carbon Cube, a giant timber cube which represented the volume of timber needed to offset the average UK citizens carbon footprint. More information about the carbon cube and how it encouraged people to think about their own carbon footprint and steps they could take to reduce it is available here. Ramboll was also involved in exhibitions with Edward Cullinan Architects as part of the Making Places exhibition, and with a number of nearby design companies as part of the Fitzrovia Trail.
Its quite striking that both of these exhibitions have utilised peoples attitudes to public spaces to get their message across, something I'm trying to be aware of when coming up with ideas for our entry.
