PLANNING APPLICATIONS

Whatever the type & size of your project, Concept 20 aims to guide you through the planning process from inception to approval.

The amount of information we need to produce varies on a case by case basis depending on the proposals

PLANNING APPLICATION DESIGN CRITERIA

 Creation of a planning application is a multifaceted process that must take into account several design criteria. Some of these areas can include:

  • Clients space requirements

  • Clients aesthetic requirements

  • Budget available

  • Feasibility of scheme

  • Energy Saving Requirements

  • Protection of Trees and wildlife

  • Flood risk

  • Fire Access

  • Site Topography

  • Archeological factors

  • Neighbouring area / properties

  • Planning legislation

  • Site drainage

  • Disabled access

  • National Space Standards

We believe in a 'think ahead' philosophy which allows us to formulate how the building will be constructed, fall within the allowed budget and comply with any planning restictions / building regulations even from our very first sketch idea.
