DC Architectural Design is driven by the pursuit of quality - A belief that our surroundings directly influence the quality of peoples lives, whether in the work place, at home or the public spaces in between. It is not just buildings but urban design that affects our well-being. I am concerned with the physical context of a project, sensitive to the culture and climate of their place.
I have applied the same priorities to public infrastructure locally. The quest for quality embraces the physical performance of buildings. The smallest details of a building, from door handles to taps, are often taken for granted, but it is these small elements with which building's users have direct contact. These components are like architecture in miniature: they must be functional, but they should also be pleasing to use - possessing good ergonomic, aesthetic and tactile qualities.
Our approach puts into practice design and creativity that directly engages the client and end user. Your local planning authority is responsible for deciding whether a development - anything from an extension on a house to a new shopping centre - should go ahead.

Services
I pride myself on adaptability, construction knowledge and design skills.
I am always happy to assist clients by providing detailed architectural plans for obtaining both planning consent and building regulations approval for new build homes and self builders.
I regularly produce building regulations plans for clients who have already gained planning permission but now need the services of someone who can turn these plans into a viable set of building regulation plans.
If you have a new build project or you are a self builder who has lots of ideas but lacks the skills to turn these into working drawings then please give me a call on 07900 455 552 or email daniel.crann@dc-ad.co.uk for a friendly no hassle chat about your proposal.

Typical Outbuilding drawings produced for our customers.
We have produced planning and building regulations drawings for clients requiring all manner of outbuildings.
The most common type of outbuilding that we get involved with are detailed below.
If you are thinking of adding an additional outbuilding on your property, perhaps a garage or workshop or perhaps a games room then we can help design a building that sits sympathetically with your existing buildings.
Rules governing outbuildings apply to sheds, greenhouses and garages as well as other ancillary garden buildings such as swimming pools, ponds, sauna cabins, kennels, enclosures (including tennis courts) and many other kinds of structure for a purpose incidental to the enjoyment of the dwelling house.

Whether you are looking to add a modest kitchen extension to your property or a wrap around two storey extensions we will help you to turn your ideas into workable detailed design drawings.
Whether you are thinking of traditional brick / block work construction, timber framed construction or utilising modern building technologies we are willing and able to assist you.
Single-storey rear extension must not extend beyond the rear wall of the 'original house'* by more than three metres if an attached house or by four metres if a detached house.

Garage conversions are perhaps the least evasive way of adding additional living space to your home.
It is also the most affordable way of creating additional space within the home.
With many people no longer using garages to house their cars the humble garage has turned into a storage area often containing things you no longer need.
By adapting the construction of the garage with the addition of some insulation, a floor upgrade and perhaps a window to replace the garage door you can turn this old storage area into a stylish dining room, or perhaps a home office.

Conservatories are a great way to add additional space to your home and when they are well designed they can create a wonderful space that you can enjoy all year round.
No more than half the area of land around the 'original house'* would be covered by additions or other buildings.
Single-storey rear extension must not extend beyond the rear wall of the 'original house'* by more than three metres if an attached house or by four metres if a detached house.
Maximum depth of a rear extension of more than one storey of three metres from the rear wall of the 'original house'* including ground floor.
