Cameron defies all stereo types of property 'developers' and by so doing calls into question common prejudices against 'housing creators'. Cameron describes his formulative years, the benefits of research, engagement with projects, and the broad scope of developing housing. On a personal side, he outlines the motivations and joy of his work. Bright and engaging in this episode we are given a rare insight into the mind of the developer.  Certain sections of the urban planning profession have a love/hate relationship with developers and vice versa. The interview gives hope better understanding and of a more mature approach from all parties.  Intro - Breezy House by Qronix Outro - Cacophany by Qronix  http://www.soundcloud.com/qronix/. This podcast was originally released in April 2015 and has been remixed in November 2015.
