Architects in north-west London

We work across north-west London, from Hampstead, Belsize Park, St John’s Wood and Maida Vale to Kilburn, Willesden, Golders Green, Hendon, Mill Hill, Edgware, Stanmore and Pinner. Each neighbourhood listed on this page has its own local page covering the planning authority and conservation context for that area.

It depends on the exact address. North-west London is split between Camden, Westminster, Brent, Barnet and Harrow, and part of Harlesden falls under the Old Oak and Park Royal Development Corporation. Boundaries run through neighbourhoods such as Kilburn and St John’s Wood, so we confirm the authority from the address before any drawings are prepared.

Not always. Many houses outside conservation areas can extend or convert a loft under permitted development, within its limits. Inside a conservation area, or where an Article 4 direction applies, more work needs a planning application. Much of Hampstead, Belsize Park, St John’s Wood and Hampstead Garden Suburb is designated, so the address check comes first.

Our office is in Hampstead, NW3, so north-west London is where much of our work is. We also work across the rest of London.

Send the address, a few photographs and a short description of the work. The first consultation is free and there is no obligation. We will tell you which authority applies, whether a conservation area or Article 4 direction affects the property, and which drawings or applications you are likely to need.
