Building your own home doesn’t have to be expensive, says designer Wayne Hemingway
Last year’s keynote speaker was property magnate, Nick Leslau, and this year it is the turn of urban designer and regeneration expert Wayne Hemingway.
Hemingway co-founded fashion chain Red Or Dead with wife Geraldine. After 21 consecutive seasons on the catwalk at London Fashion Week, the pair sold Red Or Dead in a multi million cash sale.
One of their highest profile projects to date is The Staiths South Bank, a 800 property mass market housing project on Tyneside for Taylor Wimpey Homes.
Morecambe-born Wayne, said building your own home doesn’t have to be done ‘the Grand Designs way’ and will be discussing how this can be done, through his experience of his and his wife’s company, Hemingway Designs.
The day will be hosted by former broadcaster Gemma Ray.
Gemma is now working as a communications consultant currently working within Manchester’s sustainable building services sector.
Head of commercial business, Paula Mallinder, said: “We’re very excited to welcome Wayne and other top figures from the industry to Manchester and to show how the region’s property sector is growing.”
