Outbuilding Planning Application-
Lambeth, London

Project Overview

Studio RUUM was appointed to prepare the planning application for a detached outbuilding designed to provide additional, flexible living space within the client's garden.

The proposal created a versatile building that could be used as a home office, gym, studio or guest accommodation while complementing the existing property and garden setting.

The Challenge

The outbuilding needed to maximise the available garden space while remaining sensitive to neighbouring properties and complying with local planning policies relating to size, height, scale and visual impact.

Careful consideration was also given to the building's position, appearance and relationship with the main house to ensure it integrated naturally within the site.

Our Planning Solution

Studio RUUM developed a carefully considered design that balanced functionality with planning compliance. We prepared the existing and proposed drawings, assessed the site's planning constraints and managed the planning application process on behalf of the client.

Throughout the project, we worked closely with the client to ensure the design met their lifestyle requirements while responding to the local authority's planning guidance.
