The planning application proposed a vision to regenerate this site, but also demonstrate how it might connect seamlessly with neighboring land that might come forward in due course. The proposal is wholly residential with 60 new homes, including family houses. These homes are designed to be of the highest standards to meet all local and national technical and design guidance. The planning application has been unanimously granted by the local authorities.
currently working on the pre-application phases liaising with client, planning consultants and local authorities. The proposed scheme delivers 170 new homes in east London with the desired overall mix. In addition, 35% of the total number of Units are affordable homes. Two commercial units are located at the forefront, addressing client needs and requirements. eight meter covenant is considered against the river and new green spaces alongside designed to increase quality of everyday life.
Working on a number of PRs schemes for Precis Holdings on their access self storage sites. The concept is to retain the self storage on site in basement levels with PRS and Serviced Offices above. This scheme in Twickenham is for 10,000sqm self storage, 2,000sqm B1 office and 130 PRS apartments with associated communal facilities.

Residential Development
This Design has been prepared to accompany the application for the redevelopment of 10-11 King’s Mews, London, Wc1n 2HZ. The site is currently empty, presenting a void along the mews street frontage. The site is flanked on either side by 3 storey private residential properties, generally with basements, either converted from the original mews buildings or new built in a style that follows the essence of the original mews buildings.
The proposal is for a three storey (plus basement) residential building to include 7 flats.

The second stage is the partial demolition of the exisitng nursing home, and the construction of the rest of the new build care facilities with the plan to retain structural and facing walls of the old building.
The planning commission advised the retain of the reusable building blocks of the previous facade as the area is of a historical significance.
The 3D BIM model study (below, both pages) conducted to minimize errors during the erection and construction phase in order to maximize coordination and final results.
currently the project has been built and BIM 3D models have been used throughout all RIBa stages. More specifically, all planning amendments and even after built drawing packages were submitted through this model.

Sustainability and Spatial Investigations
The project assignment was to propose ideas and strategies for sustainable development at scottish Borders after the completion of the railway reconnection with the mainland scotland.
The railway is expected to provide massive growth to the area as property values are expected to rise and while more and more people will prefer to live outside the cities and commute to work. The reduce in commute time will play major significant implications as investors and developers will foresee to capitalize from it.
Our team focused in stow a small village with a great natural habitat surrounding it. The main road a7) is passing through the village and constitutes the one and only connection point to the rest of the country. The proposal was to develop strategic urban development proposal as growth has been considered as irreversible. The prediction in numbers based on data of similar case studies, usable agricultural land, free range livestock, climate change, flooding and architectural optimization were the main topics that determined our proposal.
another major element was the design of building components/spaces that had specific dimensions and placed in a way that could provide cavity spaces, protection from direct sunlight and green spaces within the cavities created. In addition, this rooms and spaces were placed above the main plates to create space for natural ventilation during the year.
