How Long Does Planning Permission Last?
If you have planning approval for an extension or other project, or if you have bought a plot of land that has planning permission to build upon it such a new house you probably have a couple of questions on your mind.
If you are looking to add value to your home of if you’ve outgrown the space you in live a home extension is the perfect solution to your needs. You will undoubtedly have seen the countless number of rear extensions popping on houses all over your local neighbourhood. Extensions have become no popular that they have even started their own terminology in the industry – Extension Architecture. As a residential architectural designer we are perfectly placed to help you get on your way.
Whether it’s a garden office, a home gym, a games room the possibilities are almost endless when it comes to what an outbuilding can offer you and your home. In terms of outbuilding design again the possibilities are almost endless, owing to their nature of being detached from the host property there is usually a lot of flexibility when it comes to itheir external look, as with extensions there are permitted development rights in place that will allow you to potentially design and construct an outbuilding without formal planning permission.
People and Housing go hand in hand with one another, where you will find people, you’ll find housing and vice versa. Understanding the unbreakable bond between these two pillars is key to ensuring a successful architectural project. It is the role of the residential architectural designer to ensure that this fundamental aspect is maintained through out every stage of the process.
