Notting Hill's colourful stucco terraces, garden squares and conservation areas create a demanding context for architectural design. Heritage-sensitive design is essential to satisfy the Royal Borough's planning officers while delivering functional, contemporary interiors. Our architectural team has extensive experience designing within this context.
Projects in Notting Hill typically involve rear extensions, basement conversions and internal reconfiguration behind preserved period frontages. The Ladbroke and Pembridge conservation areas impose strict controls on external alterations, materials and fenestration.
We deliver coordinated design packages covering planning drawings, Building Regulations compliance, CDM coordination and construction specification, ensuring Notting Hill projects move from concept to completion with minimal delay.
