planning applications
Planning permission is one of the most critical, and often one of the most daunting stages of any architectural project.
We handle the process with the precision, insight and strategy it demands.
Our approach balances design ambition with planning practicability.
a streamlined, strategic process
Before we design, we investigate. We assess the planning history of your site, relevant local policies and any constraints or opportunities.
Whether you're working within a conservation area, on Green Belt land, or with listed structures, we evaluate risk and viability from the outset - so you're never left with surprises.
For more complex or ambitious schemes, we recommend pre-application consultations with the local planning authority. This gives us valuable insight into how proposals may be received and allows us to shape a stronger, more informed submission.
We speak the planners’ language and are heavily involved in the planning agents forum, so your ideas are clearly and professionally presented.
planning with confidence
Once finalised, we submit your planning application and act as your agent throughout the process. We liaise directly with planning officers, respond to feedback, and provide updates at every key stage.
You stay informed - without being overwhelmed.
Once approval is granted, we move seamlessly into the next phase - detailed design, construction drawings, and coordination with consultants.
If revisions are required or appeals are necessary, we guide you through every step. Your vision remains protected.
