CABE

The work of the Urban Task Force led directly to the creation by the Government of CABE – the Commission for Architecture and the Built Environment.

CABE is the champion for architecture in England. Its function is to promote high standards in the design of buildings and the spaces between them. It exists to help and offer advice to all those who create, manage and use the built environment.

CABE’s aims are:

  • to promote design that is fit for purpose, sustainable, responsive to context, good looking, coherent, flexible and an expression of functional requirements
  • to promote recognition amongst all stakeholders of the cultural, social, economic and environmental benefits that better design brings
  • to ensure that our activities embrace all aspects of the built environment, all parts of the country and all sections of society
  • to foster public awareness and appreciation of good design in architecture and the built environment and encourage public involvement in its creation
  • to incorporate the principles of sustainable development into all aspects of our work
  • to be open, consultative and accountable in our ways of working and to operate cost-effectively.
