Education Youth Enterprise Community Centre.

Enterprise Youth Education Community Centre.

THE EYE – Enterprise Youth Education Community Centre.

Fingerprintstudios Architects are working on the delivery of a new youth and community centre: THE EYE – Enterprise Youth Education Community Centre

Fingerprintstudios Architects are proud to be working on the contemporary design of a new youth and community centre in the heart of Billingshurst. This new youth and community centre will provide a new facility for young people to have some where to go and something to do.

THE EYE – Enterprise Youth Education Community Centre A new youth and community centre.

This Education Youth Enterprise Community Centre will provide an important asset to the local community providing a much needed facility to support the youth and future generations. This will provide the youth with a base to learn new skills and become valuable assets for the local area.

A challenging site for a planning application.

The site is a green built of land shoe horned into a built up area making vehicular access challenging. The site is no doubt challenging for any planning application. The site is land locked with no vehicular access, its bound on one side by a direct London railway line, two public right of way footpaths, a school MUGA (Multi Use Games Area) and playing fields, Billingshurst Bowling Club and a residential area. In all this will prove to have many hurdles and challenges for us during our efforts to obtain planning permission for this Education Youth Enterprise Community Centre.

Vernacular design with a modern twist.

This initial massing model gives a flavour of our current thoughts for the Education Youth Enterprise Community Centre. Taking a pinch of the local vernacular design and mixing it with a contemporary and modern twist will provide an interesting and dynamic youth centre for the community. The pitched roof and timber cladding are a direct reference to the barns found within the local area of West Sussex. This modern twist is used to ensure that the local youth are attracted to this new facility.

Permitted Development VS Planning Permission

Permitted Development vs Planning Permission.

Permitted Development vs Planning Permission Extension.

Planning Permission vs Permitted Development?

Planning Permission vs Permitted Development?

As a client you could stand to save money and get your project on site quicker by exercising your rights under permitted development. However there are some things to be considered. Permitted development is untested in land law as a relatively new change to planning law. Planning applications for domestic extensions typically cost £172 and permitted development allow you to build without the need or the cost of a planning application with the Local Authority. However you will be constrained to the rules governing permitted development. You can apply for a permitted development certificate which will ensure that if you are looking forward to selling your property you are safe in the knowledge that the application is lawful. Fingerprintstudios Architects can assist you in professional advice at the start of your construction project from concept to completion. Permitted Development VS Planning Permission requires some real consideration and appointing us as your architect we can provide the professional advice to guide you through the process.

Permitted development for a new single storey rear extension.

PERMITTED DEVELOPMENT – Fingerprintstudios are preparing an initial concept scheme for a permitted development for a single storey rear extension. This piece of Architecture falls within the parameters for Permitted Development as set out by Central and Local Government. THIS SCHEME DOES NOT REQUIRE FORMAL PLANNING PERMISSION.

 

Contemporary Flat Roof and Bi-fold doors under Permitted Development.

Permitted development does not mean that your new house extension has to be bland and boring. Whilst permitted development puts some restrictions on the design, size and massing of the house extension or design proposal, this does not mean that the design can not be considered. As an architectural practice we are skilled in looking outside the box and exploring opportunities and constraints to maximise the design and finding the benefits for our clients.

We work hard to get the most for our clients, be it through a traditional Planning Application or through Permitted Development we can help you make your dreams a reality.
