Planning Success!
In the second of our recent planning successes, we just received permission for a beautiful wrap around extension and reconfiguration of a townhouse in the Telegraph Hill Conservation Area.
A constricted, sloping site gave opportunity for a subtle timber framed courtyard dining area, leading through to a kitchen flooded with light. Exposed danish brick and raw plaster finishes compliment the space. Elsewhere we are looking at environmental upgrades and internal alterations.
Planning Success!
After a looooong 6 month wait, we have planning permission for the first phase of works at our project in the St Albans Conservation Area.
Our clients briefed us to increase the light in their rather dark Victorian property. Our design includes a reconfiguration and extension of the ground floor, which includes an up-and-over window with earthy orange-brown patina of corten cladding, complimenting the original harling render and red bricks.
