Context-led residential architecture, grounded in planning insight.

Replacement dwellings, extensions and small residential schemes.

We design carefully considered residential projects where proportion, context and planning policy matter.
Whether replacing an existing dwelling or extending a family home, our work is grounded in clarity, restraint and long-term value.

New Houses

Context-led residential architecture, grounded in planning insight.

Extensions + Rennovations

Carefully proportioned additions that enhance the original house and align with local character and policy.

Small residential developments

We design small residential schemes where architecture and planning must work together from the outset.

This typically includes infill sites, backland plots, village edge locations and redevelopment sites, where context, access, scale and policy compliance are critical to success.

Our role usually covers:

  • Early Site Appraisal and Feasibility Studies

  • Layout and Massing Options to test what’s realistic

  • Architecture that responds to neighbours, character and landscape

  • A coordinated planning submission, led by a clear strategy

Because architecture and planning are handled together, decisions are tested early, reducing redesign, delay and unnecessary risk.

Considering a small development? Email enquiry@dames-ap.com with your site address and proposed unit numbers.

Many clients choose us for both Architecture + Planning

so design and policy move in step from the start.

Where a project team is already in place, we’re equally comfortable working alongside your existing consultants.
