Mapping Out Scotland’s Future The Scottish Executive is using the Scottish Design Show to launch an innovative new project that will illustrate some of Scotland’s major future developments. Planners at the Scottish Executive have pulled together contributions from a range of local authorities, developers and architects, using 3D and landscape visualisation to provide an exciting visualisation of how Scotland will look in 2020.
