Hawkes Architecture specialises in securing planning permission for new isolated homes in the countryside under the NPPF Paragraph 84 policy. To date, they have secured 30 such consents across England.
Designing a Paragraph 84 house requires tailoring the building to its specific location. With every site and client being unique, each home is designed to respond uniquely to its environment and occupants.
Their design process begins with a thorough exploration of the site and understanding the client's aspirations. This detailed analysis ensures a deep connection between the home, its place, and its inhabitants. Hawkes Architecture's extensive experience with the NPPF Paragraph 84 policy has led to the development of a refined design framework that ensures each building is exceptional in quality, deeply rooted in its surroundings, and meets the highest expectations of its occupants.
Join RIBA West Kent Branch for a tour of Lake House by Hawkes Architecture. This elegant and relatively modest Paragraph 84 dwelling is set within 40 acres of the High Weald Area of Natural Beauty, within East Sussex.
This is a free event for RIBA Members.
Please book your ticket as soon as possible as spaces are limited.
