Sensitive Sites
Design-led proposals for policy-sensitive settings
Some projects stand or fall on planning strategy.
Rural settings, policy sensitivity, and high scrutiny demand more than generic advice — they need careful judgement, a clear narrative, and design quality that’s backed by a robust route. We help you understand what’s realistically achievable early, then guide the project through a calm, staged process.
How we guide your grand design
-
Early clarity on policy constraints and likely planning tests
Site and context understanding that shapes the strategy
Concept work that supports the planning case, not speculation
Pre-application strategy
Planning submissions that are clear, coherent and well-supported
-
A clear “route map” before you spend heavily
A design strategy that responds to context, not just preference
A calm staged process with defined outputs
A robust planning pack aligned to the sensitivities of the site
-
Landowners pursuing a one-off home in a sensitive rural setting
Clients considering a Paragraph 84-style proposal
Anyone dealing with previous refusals or policy-driven complexity
