Willie Miller Urban Design (WMUD) is a Glasgow based creative interdisciplinary consultancy specialising in place-making and the design and regeneration of urban and rural areas. Established in 1996, the practice has grown to accommodate specialisms in planning, regeneration, landscape and community consultation, as well as our core disciplines of urban design and masterplanning.

Our specialisms are most frequently brought into play at the level of the neighbourhood, small town or urban quarter, including town and district centres. We regularly augment our own capability with complementary skills from other practices.

For more information, please download our Practice Profile (Winter 2008) (8.00 MB).
