The announcement follows MurrayTwohig’s several recent appointments on major UK projects, including for the East Midlands Development Company, where we have joined the commercial partner team as vision and placemaking strategists for the biggest development opportunity in the Midlands. We are also serving as the commercial strategist on the masterplanning team for the University of Oxford’s £1 billion residential-led development at Begbroke Science Park in Kidlington.

In an expansion of our place consultancy business, in April 2022 we also announced our first project acting as MurrayTwohig Development – the regeneration of a 42-acre waterfront site at Daedalus, Lee-on-the-Solent, in joint-venture with Orwell Real Estate and Patron Capital.

Honor has spent the last seven years as Director of Placemaking at Battersea Power Station, overseeing the world leading regeneration project across the full spectrum of development. With experience in the delivery of heritage, culture, community engagement and opening strategies at Battersea Power Station, Honor will bring her placemaking expertise to MurrayTwohig.

Honor Fishburn, UK and European Director, MurrayTwohig: “It is an exciting time to be joining the MurrayTwohig team with the announcement of the East Midlands, Begbroke, and Daedalus projects. The value of place, vision and activation strategies to deliver long-term value is increasingly fundamental to development and I look forward to joining the team of experts at MurrayTwohig as we implement place strategies across a range of projects in the UK and beyond.”

David Twohig, co-founder of MurrayTwohig said: “Through working with Honor first at Battersea Power Station and more recently as a placemaking consultant, we are aware of her incredible wealth of expertise on all manners of place strategy. Now, as a permanent member of the team we are looking forward to the benefits Honor can bring to our clients on some fantastic projects in the UK and Europe.”
