New Dwellings and Retail Store
Knutsford, Cheshire
Planning applications were prepared for the demolition of a disused plant nursery and replacement with two new houses and a high quality retail unit. The new store design is a contemporary take on traditional barn construction and included single storey wings to the rear with green roofs and central courtyard.
Hand drawn sketches were used to communicate the design to the local planning authority.
A single storey element to the rear of the showroom provides additional display area and opens up onto the rear patio
