We thrive on challenges across all budget ranges! From £10k Norwich bathroom renovations to £600k rural Norfolk bespoke homes, we understand that projects of any size can transform your daily living experience. Our passion for thoughtful design applies to every project, regardless of scale.

The earlier, the better! Whether you're searching for land, have just purchased a property, or want to reimagine your current home, early architectural involvement is invaluable. We help uncover your property's full potential, propose creative solutions you might not have considered, and help you avoid costly mistakes down the line. Early engagement allows us to integrate sustainable design principles and energy-efficient solutions from the outset, ensuring a cohesive and environmentally friendly project.

Unlike traditional percentage-based fees (typically 5-15% of construction costs) or unpredictable hourly rates, we offer complete transparency with fixed fees tailored to your specific project. Our pricing breaks down each stage of the design, planning, and build process, ensuring you know exactly what to expect from the beginning.

We collaborate with several professional builders in the area. We encourage clients to speak directly with potential builders and visit their completed projects to find the best match for your needs. We're happy to facilitate these connections based on your project requirements.

This depends on your project's scope and location. We'll assess whether your project requires a formal planning application or can proceed under permitted development rights. For either pathway, we provide comprehensive assistance with preparation and submission to the local authority, ensuring compliance with local regulations in Norfolk and Suffolk. Our expertise in navigating local planning policies and site constraints helps maximize your approval chances.

Permitted development refers to specific regulations allowing certain extensions and modifications to existing homes without requiring planning permission. These rights can significantly streamline smaller projects.

Several elements affect planning outcomes, including local planning policies, site constraints, and environmental considerations. Our expertise helps navigate these factors effectively, and we'll build the right design team to maximize your approval chances.

Absolutely! We offer end-to-end support throughout the planning process, preparing all necessary documentation and representing your interests to local planning authorities.

For a new home, realistic timelines include approximately six months for design, at least two months for planning approval, and 9-12 months for construction. Timeline variations depend on project complexity and specialist availability (surveyors, engineers, builders). While we can explore ways to expedite certain phases for time-sensitive projects, our experience shows that thorough planning consistently delivers superior results.

Construction duration varies based on project complexity and size. We work closely with contractors to provide realistic timeline estimates specific to your project.

Definitely! We tailor our designs to reflect your unique style preferences and architectural aspirations. Our personalised approach ensures your project authentically represents your vision, with a special focus on the architectural heritage and natural beauty of Norfolk and Suffolk. We draw inspiration from mid-century lines and Scandinavian aesthetics, merging these influences with modern design elements to create beautiful and practical homes.

Yes! We initiate sustainability and energy efficiency discussions early in the design process. Our approach includes features like passive solar design, efficient insulation systems, and renewable energy integration tailored to your priorities and budget. We work closely with specialists in energy assessment and conservation to ensure high-quality outcomes. Our commitment to sustainability is reflected in every project, aiming to create energy-efficient designs that align with environmental considerations.

While we maintain established relationships with trusted local contractors, we're equally comfortable working with your preferred team. Our priority is ensuring quality craftsmanship that brings your design to life. We encourage clients to speak directly with potential builders and visit their completed projects to find the best match for your needs.

Retrofit involves upgrading an existing home to improve comfort and energy efficiency. This can range from basic draft-proofing to comprehensive insulation upgrades.

Think of your house as an interconnected system. The whole house retrofit approach examines how insulation, windows, heating, ventilation, and appliances collectively impact comfort and energy efficiency, then implements comprehensive improvements across these elements.

Bungalows often feature substantial plots with large ground-floor footprints but limited space due to their single-story nature. Extending upward provides an excellent solution that addresses spatial constraints while creating opportunities for more aesthetically interesting building facades.

We provide transparent pricing based on project scope, complexity, and anticipated time involvement. Our goal is delivering exceptional value while respecting your budget constraints. We ensure our pricing reflects the specific needs and conditions of projects in Norfolk and Suffolk. Additionally, we offer fixed fees tailored to your specific project, breaking down each stage of the design, planning, and build process for complete transparency.

We actively explore cost-effective solutions without compromising quality. This includes efficient design approaches and material selections carefully calibrated to your budget.

We implement robust contract management processes, including regular site inspections, to keep your project on track and aligned with contract specifications.
