Design & Build in Hampstead Garden Suburb.
Design and build means we take responsibility for the whole project, from the first sketch to the day you move back in. There is one contract, one programme and one person to call, and the people who drew the scheme are in the same office as the people building it.
For a house or flat in Hampstead Garden Suburb that covers the measured survey, concept and developed design, planning and building regulation drawings, the applications themselves, construction by our own site team, the kitchen and bathrooms we supply, joinery, decoration and handover with a guarantee on the work.
The advantage is simple: nothing falls between an architect, a planning consultant and a builder, because they are the same team. Problems are solved on the drawing board rather than on site, and the price and programme are set before work starts.

Hampstead Garden Suburb: the houses and the planning rules.
Hampstead Garden Suburb is a planned Arts and Crafts suburb begun in 1907, with cottages and houses by Unwin, Parker, Lutyens and their contemporaries set on tree-lined roads around Central Square. The whole Suburb is protected twice over, by Barnet as a conservation area and by the Hampstead Garden Suburb Trust, which must approve any external change.
Owners here typically want to extend and modernise without losing what makes the houses special. That means extensions designed in the Suburb's own language, roofs and windows that follow the Trust's guidance, and interiors that bring services and kitchens up to date while keeping the original joinery and proportions.
The whole Suburb is a conservation area, with Article 4 directions on every street and the Hampstead Garden Suburb Trust as a second consenting body.
London Borough of Barnet
Barnet decides planning applications, with Article 4 directions across the Suburb removing permitted development rights for all external work.
The Trust
The Hampstead Garden Suburb Trust must also approve external alterations under the scheme of management, with its own design guidance and application.
Materials
Handmade tiles, brick, timber windows and lime render are expected; the Trust publishes detailed guidance for each.
