So, you have designed your dream space, and to achieve it you will need to apply for Planning Permission to your local authority. In this blog post I will try to explain the process in the most concise and understandable way, so that you can move forward with confidence.
The Fundamentals of Great Design: Sustainability + Well Being
Recent studies indicate that we spend 90% of our time indoors or in cars. With figures as low as 7% of our time spent in nature. Because of this, architects face the challenge of creating comfortable and healthy interiors.
The Fundamentals of Great Design: Functional, Bespoke + Flexible Design
Design solutions that are specifically tailored for the client will always end up more successful than something more generic or off the shelf
The Fundamentals of Great Design: Movement + Organisation
Spatial planning is a key tool at the beginning of the design process.
The Fundamentals of Great Design: Scale + Proportion
We perceive the space around us in relation to our own body measurements or in comparison with a known dimension such as a double bed.
The Fundamentals of Great Design: Context
How a building sits in an existing context or environment.
The Fundamentals of Great Design: Views
A view from a window is so important to all of us, whether in an office, home, or social setting.
