Residential Architectural Design in Berkhamsted
From its historic centre and canal-side streets to homes rising along the valley sides, Berkhamsted has a varied mix of properties, each with its own opportunities and constraints.
LOTA Architecture provides residential architectural design in Berkhamsted for extensions, renovations and new homes. We help homeowners make better use of their property and move confidently through design, planning and technical development.
Every project begins with your home, your priorities and how you want to live.
Berkhamsted Projects
Gramesdyke Road
This extension and refurbishment improved the layout of an existing Berkhamsted home and created a better relationship between its living spaces and garden.
Cross Oak Road
A new-build home that brings together traditional form and modern design, with warm, earthy interiors creating a calm and welcoming atmosphere.
Cross Oak Road
Our work at Cross Oak Road involved extending and remodelling the property to provide more practical living spaces and improve the connection with the garden.
From first ideas to construction
Our services include initial consultations, measured surveys, concept design, planning applications, technical drawings and construction support.
You can appoint us for the complete process or choose the individual stages your project requires.
Extensions, renovations and new homes
Planning applications in Berkhamsted are handled by Dacorum Borough Council. We review the property, its planning history and any constraints before recommending the most suitable approach.
Some projects may fall within permitted development rights, while others will require planning permission. Parts of Berkhamsted are also within a conservation area, where additional care may be needed around design, materials and visible changes.
We prepare the required drawings and supporting information, submit the application and monitor its progress with the council.
