Our Design Feasibility Studies are the first step in turning your vision into reality. We take your detailed brief and use our expertise to create 3-5 floor plan options, maximising every millimetre of space. After your review, we refine the design into a final plan, incorporating any feedback and conducting initial planning research (if required).

This helps you:

• Understand the full potential of your site or property and explore different layout options, including extension possibilities

• Consider multiple strategies or fallback options if you're undecided on the best approach

Deliverables:

• 3-5 layout options, including room sizes and furniture arrangements, presented in a professional PDF booklet

We’ll guide you through the entire planning application and listed building consent process, handling everything from start to finish—beyond just the drawings.

Our designs are tailored to maximise space while being informed by thorough local planning research, giving you the best chance of securing approval. With a 95% approval rate across 44+ councils (as of Feb 2025), we proactively monitor all applications, stay in regular contact with planning officers, and address any potential issues swiftly.

We’re also experienced in complex planning matters, including Sui Generis HMO applications, Article 4 areas, Conservation Areas, and Listed Buildings.

While LDCs aren’t mandatory for permitted development works, we recommend submitting one for the following reasons and we can take care of the entire process for you:

• Peace of mind – Get formal confirmation from your local planning authority that your works fall under permitted development.

• Lender confidence – Some lenders may require an LDC to confirm the works are permitted.

• Future sale – An LDC can help prove that your completed works comply, simplifying the selling process.

• Neighbour disputes – If issues arise with neighbours, an LDC provides official paperwork showing the works are permitted.

We offer a flexible post-planning drawing service, including full Building Regulations and tender packages, or individual "bolt-on" drawings like electrical and lighting layouts, as needed.

Please note: We do not provide on-site services, project management, or contract administration. After we provide your drawings, you’ll be responsible for appointing and managing your own contractor.
