Working within a Conservation Area, we prepared the scheme for Prior Approval, demonstrating compliance with the Nationally Described Space Standards and Building Regulations to ensure a clear path to consent.
We collaborated closely with our client to deliver an optimal housing mix, maximising gross development value while ensuring unit sizes remain aligned with local market capital values.
The project demonstrates our ability to balance regulatory compliance, design quality, and commercial viability in sensitive urban settings.

"I’ve had the pleasure of working closely with Tim as part of team delivering the Church Street regeneration in Westminster.
Tim has the brilliant combination of talented designer, clear communicator and trusting leader, giving us as architects the tools we needed to deliver the project vision, while working collaboratively and always being available to review and resolve the inevitable challenges that arose."
"I worked with Tim when he was Mount Anvil’s Head of Design on Burridge Gardens (St John's Hill) in London, which was a joint venture development between Mount Anvil and Peabody.
In his position Tim carefully guided the design team to meet the development requirements of these two organisations. Balancing the cost plan whilst delivering a scheme with great residential and retail architecture."
"Working with Tim is always a pleasure. He consistently delivers high-quality, efficient outputs, driving both himself and the wider consultant team to meet challenging briefs and tight programmes.
Tim has a rare blend of strategic refinement and a keen eye for detailed design, which allows him to unlock complex or stalled sites—such as Watermeadow Court—through intelligent optimisation of plan, form, and elevation."
"I had the privilege of collaborating with Tim on our Whitechapel project in London, known as the Silk District where we acted as Architects.
The project presented a complex redevelopment challenge within a dense urban context, requiring a strategic balance between maximising site value and driving efficiency whilst navigating the local planning landscape. Tim delivered exceptional results across all these areas, demonstrating outstanding expertise and professional acumen."
"Tim came into the project at a critical point, with the final phase of our residential development stalled due to a housing mix that no longer reflected market demand. We needed fresh thinking and a range of viable options quickly to move things forward. Tim immediately understood the challenge and delivered a well thought out suite of design options, each carefully considered from both a planning and commercial perspective."
"Working with Tim was a genuinely collaborative experience. He has a strong grasp of both the design process and the commercial realities of development, which meant we were always pulling in the same direction. From the outset — having already identified key optimisation opportunities — Tim clearly set out the vision and overarching development goals, and worked closely with us to shape a scheme that balanced planning strategy, viability, and strong design principles."
