Our guest this week is Emmet Humphreys, Senior Executive Architect in Housing, in Galway City Council.

Emmet discusses his career as an architect from his studies in Sweden to a private practice in Drogheda to public service in Roscommon and Galway. Emmet has always had a keen interest in urban planning and the crucial role of collaboration between all the stakeholders including civic, commercial, community and cultural interests. This is a fascinating discussion for anybody interested in the future of urban planning.
