 We wrote a short piece for the monthly newsletter of the Belgravia Society, following research into a site that formerly housed a 'sun ray therapy' building from the inter-War period. This was a popular health movement at the time which saw thousands bathing in artificial sunlight, until post-War the problems of over exposure became evident.

 We were delighted to secure planning permission for this striking contemporary house on a riverside site of the Thames. The new house, built for our client as their dream home, will replace an existing dilapidated house on a prime river frontage. The project raised issues of flooding, drainage, ecology, trees and sustainability as well as the design. The application was approved by the Council, with the Planning Committee unanimous in their admiration of the design and securing a permission for a prominent site.
Client: private householder  A quirk in planning policy means that erecting outbuildings to dwellings in the Green Belt can often be difficult. This case was made even more difficult by a planning condition attached to a new housing development that specifically removed permitted development rights. The Council had refused permission for our client's new home office building at the end of their garden. We put the case in what was a surprisingly complex appeal, given the small scale, and the appeal was allowed with the Inspector accepting our interpretation of Green Belt policy rather than the Council's case.
