Planning approvals in the Peak District National Park
If you are looking for an Architect, Studio Gedye is based in the Peak District National Park and has successfully gained planning permission for several challenging projects in the area. Throughout his career Architect Simon Gedye has worked in sensitive environments, on many important listed buildings and it is this experience that informs our approach to design in this beautiful setting.
Projects range from extensions to cottages and houses, a camping barn and a workshop. Our approach is to examine the design options that extend our clients expectations. By making a strong case for the preferred design and through detailed negotiation with the Peak District National Park Authority we have been successful in gaining approvals.
The practice studio - a low impact building - is set in a garden and is built entirely of timber. The studio is designed as a light footprint on the environment, it sits on paving slabs and utilises few proprietary products. It will be heated by a wood burning stove making it a low carbon development. Permission was granted within 8 weeks.
We work closely with Keith Groom of Nashmead who are local enginneers, to provide a full design service to householders and for commercial developments in the national park.
