Space Planning

Many of our projects involve an element of space planning. Examples could be a simple re-organisation of the internal layout of a house to the subdivision of a property into several flats. This is an area of work that we also have extensive experience of, particularly in relation to internal alterations to listed buildings, which requires an enormous amount of care and attention to detail. Whatever your requirements we can prepare designs and make the applications, including:

Initial sketch layouts to explore the possible alterations and benefits.
Detailed advice on planning issues, particularly when working with Listed Buildings where approval is required for internal alterations.
Preparation of large scale drawings for items such as:

Staircase including handrails, spindles & newel posts
Doors & windows
Timber mouldings
Kitchen layouts
Bathroom layouts including detailed design of built-in storage, vanity units, cupboards & shelving.
Built-in furniture (particularly in loft conversions)
Tiling plans
Small power & lighting layouts

Building regulations notes and drawings as required, this may include uprating fire or sound proofing in a subdivision for instance which requires careful design and detailing to ensure it is an effective, buildable solution.
