Planning permission can trigger worries for some. How long will it take, and what happens if it goes wrong?

It’s not always something to dread. Managing that process is a large part of what we do.

Some sites are complicated, and heritage or conservation work can take a long time. Whatever you’re building, we’ll always let you know what’s happening.

Are you thinking about a project and need planning advice? Get in touch

You’d be forgiven for thinking this is an original feature, but this opening is new.

​Creating it meant cutting through an existing cob and stone wall, and the granite was inserted afterwards.

Stone is hardwearing and tactile; here it provides the perfect threshold between two rooms.

We love seeing how new elements added to older buildings can complement what’s already there.

Moving home is taking longer right now. Propertymark reports sales currently take around 18+ weeks from offer to completion.
You can use the time to prepare. Start your brief at the kitchen table.
Your wish list
Your budget
Your moodboard.

When you're ready, we'll research what's been approved nearby, draw up your ideas and look after the permissions, so building can begin in spring 2028.

The best things are worth waiting for.

If you'd like some advice before you begin, send us a message. We'd love to hear about your move.

The owners knew they wanted a home that felt open, calm and easy to move through. They gave Emily a brief, and with it their trust.

Behind the calm finish sits real structural change. The arches came down, the unstable staircase came out, and a new one now stands at the heart of the open-plan layout.

The kitchen moved to overlook the back garden, and the enclosed front porch opened up to reveal the views over the water.

If your home holds a view you'd love to see more of, let's talk about its potential.

Andy came to architectural design from a background in law and policy.

Alongside Emily, he handles every stage of a project, leads most of the practice's planning work and brings his in-depth knowledge to every application.

When he's not untangling planning policy, Andy will probably be walking on Dartmoor, tending the garden, or seeing friends and playing board games.

Working with Devon's traditional materials requires understanding that goes beyond standard construction practice.
Every cob wall reads differently in composition, moisture history, and its relationship with the stone plinth below.

But its longevity is more than material. It's a part of our heritage and identity that deserves to last.
