Architectural & Interior Design in Richmond.
Good building starts with good drawings. Our in-house architects and interior designers take a project in Richmond 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 Richmond upon Thames 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.

Richmond: the houses and the planning rules.
Richmond has Georgian houses around the Green and up the Hill, Victorian villas along the roads to the Park, and Edwardian streets between the station and Kew. The view from Richmond Hill is protected by Act of Parliament, and the conservation areas are among the most carefully managed in outer London.
Refurbishments here range from listed Georgian townhouses to Edwardian family houses that want a kitchen extension and a loft. The council's design guidance is detailed and its conservation officers are engaged, so the drawings and heritage statement are prepared to match.
The Richmond Town, Richmond Hill, Richmond Green and Kew Green conservation areas cover the centre and the riverside, and many houses are listed.
