Royal Borough of Greenwich is a London Borough in Southeast of Greater London. Greenwich is well known for its historic connections with the Royal Navy and its vast green spaces. The borough provides a sought after place to live and work.
The Royal Borough of Greenwich planning department has developed a Local Development Framework (LDF) which sets out the council’s planning policies for any developments within the borough. Details of the LDF can be found on this link. The council also maintains and produces Supplementary Planning Documents (SPDs) which provide more detailed guidance on issues of design, conservation and affordable housing, amongst other matters. SPDs can be found on
Royal Borough of Greenwich has 23 conservation areas. These areas are covered under additional planning controls such as Article 4 Restrictions. See a list of all conservation areas on the council website here. Due to additional requirements and constraints in planning in conservation areas, it is important to hire an experienced Architect such as AK Studios Architects.

There are many types of single storey extensions we undertake such as

Every Project is Unique
We try to work with your requirements to come up with a design that suits your lifestyle. From open plan areas to adding utility rooms and keeping the clutter away or creating enough space for a home office, to having a small snug or play area, or adding accessibility to the house and living space, everyone has their own requirement and reason for carrying out an extension. Our design ideas focus on the need, while keeping in mind that various designs have varying degree of costs attached to them.
