Architectural & Interior Design in Northwood.

Good building starts with good drawings. Our in-house architects and interior designers take a project in Northwood 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 Hillingdon 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.

Northwood: the houses and the planning rules.

Northwood grew up around the Metropolitan line station in the early 1900s, with substantial Edwardian houses along the tree-lined roads to the east and inter-war housing filling the rest. Plots are large, the houses are detached, and the neighbouring Moor Park estate raises the ceiling on what owners will invest.

The projects here are among the largest we do outside central London: double-storey rear extensions, full refurbishments with new services and layouts, new kitchens and bathrooms throughout, and loft conversions within the deep hipped roofs.

The Northwood Frithwood and Green Lane conservation areas cover parts of the district; most streets are unrestricted.

London Borough of Hillingdon

Hillingdon decides applications. Large plots mean most single-storey extensions are permitted development, while double-storey schemes need a householder application.

Conservation areas

In the Frithwood and Green Lane areas, external changes are assessed against the conservation area appraisal, with attention to trees and boundary treatments.

Moor Park

On the Moor Park estate, the residents' association has its own covenants and approval process alongside planning.
