How We Achieve a 97% Approval Rate

Our planning success is not luck. It is the result of a disciplined, research-driven approach refined over hundreds of applications across London.

01

Pre-Application Advice

Before we draw a single line, we engage with the local planning authority through their pre-application advice service. This allows us to understand officer expectations, identify potential objections, and shape proposals that align with current policy. For sensitive sites, we often hold multiple pre-app meetings to build consensus around design direction before formal submission.

02

Anticipating Officer Concerns

Our architects have worked with planning officers across every London borough. We know what they look for: impact on neighbouring amenity, daylight and sunlight analysis, materials palette in conservation areas, and compliance with borough-specific supplementary planning documents. We proactively address these in our design statements so officers have fewer reasons to raise objections.

03

Heritage & Conservation Expertise

A significant proportion of our projects fall within conservation areas or involve listed buildings. Our heritage team prepares detailed heritage impact assessments, engages with conservation officers early, and designs interventions that respect historic fabric while delivering modern living standards. This expertise is particularly valuable in boroughs like Camden, Westminster, and Kensington & Chelsea where heritage constraints are strictest.

04

Borough-Specific Policy Knowledge

Every London borough has its own Local Plan, supplementary planning documents, and design guides. Camden’s approach to loft conversions differs from Wandsworth’s; Islington’s basement policy is distinct from Kensington & Chelsea’s. Our team maintains a working knowledge of each borough’s specific requirements, ensuring every submission is tailored to the policies that will be applied when assessing it.
