In our latest ‘IABSE in Conversation’ we talk to Catherine Ramsden, a founding Director at Useful Studio which is a London based Social Enterprise of architects, designers, and practitioners. We start by exploring her transition from the US to the UK and then from work in a large practice to setting up on your own. Alongside her educational, residential and bridge projects we look at how Useful Simple Trust has been created as a ‘B-Corp’, a new type of sustainable design practice, and how that can work in a commercially savvy world. Repurposing, diversity, sustainability, and great design all come together in one ‘big pie’.Interviewer: John Roberts, CSDI
