First Blog

I'd like to start with a salutation to Tom Dyckhoff for an excellent Channel TV programme "The Secret Life of Buildings" focussing on the design of houses and how it will effect the Occupants. I recommend you seek this out and watch it.
I'd like to emphasise that you as a potential Client should take time to consider the design of your project. Look at alternatives and don't just go for the cheap sketch, quick application and early start on site.
"The Beginning" is the cheapest point in the process to make changes, so try and explore every option at that stage. You will need to wait for Planners and Building Control anyway so use the time profitably and wisely.  That way your Building or Extension should meet your needs and more.
