Architectural & Interior Design in Muswell Hill.

Good building starts with good drawings. Our in-house architects and interior designers take a project in Muswell Hill from a first conversation to a set of drawings the council will validate and a builder can price, and because we are also the builder, the drawings are produced with construction in mind from the first sketch.

The design stage begins with a measured survey of the existing house and a conversation about how you live. From that we draw two or three options, develop the one you choose, and produce the planning application, building regulation drawings and interior specification: finishes, lighting, joinery, kitchen and bathrooms, all as one coordinated scheme.

We design to the policies of the London Borough of Haringey from the outset, so schemes are not redrawn after a refusal, and we obtain pre-application advice where that would help. Many clients start with the design stage alone and decide later whether to build with us; the drawings are theirs either way.

Muswell Hill: the houses and the planning rules.

Muswell Hill was built almost in one go between 1896 and 1914, which is why it is so coherent: wide avenues of red-brick Edwardian houses with tiled paths, stained glass and generous rooms, radiating from the Broadway. The houses are large, the gardens are long and the roofs have room to convert.

It is a family-house market, and the projects match: side-return and rear extensions for open-plan kitchens, loft conversions with rear dormers, and refurbishments that keep the Edwardian detail while renewing everything behind it.

The Muswell Hill Conservation Area covers the Edwardian centre and the avenues around it.

London Borough of Haringey

Haringey decides applications. Within the conservation area, front alterations and roof changes visible from the street need permission; rear extensions are often permitted development.

Lofts

Edwardian roofs generally offer good headroom; rear dormers are usually permitted development outside Article 4 streets.

Trees and gardens

Mature street and garden trees are often protected; we check for tree preservation orders before designing extensions.
