We were recommended for this project following a planning refusal experienced by our clients' adjoining neighbours, who had initially engaged with an architectural designer. Situated in a conservation area, the property held significant character, making it essential to approach the project with both sensitivity and a deep understanding of heritage considerations. Taking on the project after the refusal, our team—comprising RIBA and ARB accredited architects—successfully secured approval for a large extension, not only for our client but also for their neighbouring property. This achievement underscores our ability to navigate the complexities of conservation area planning requirements while ensuring both properties met modern living standards.
