Planning Sub – Stour Road, Christchurch

inDA have recently submitted a scheme for the demolition of an existing warehouse and auction room buildings and the erection of 34 residential units with associated amenity space, landscaping, car and cycle parking. The site is located directly next to Christchurch rail station and is only a few minutes by car to the town centre. The land has been identified under Christchurch’s Local Plan as potential for residential / mixed use redevelopment.

Planning Sub – North End Road, Fulham

AUA has submitted a planning application for a mixed-use scheme in Fulham. The proposal retains the existing retail units and creates a new build residential scheme, consisting of 8No. units, over the top of the existing building. The residential fenestration design, will in part, aim to proportionally respond to neighbouring properties whilst functionally responding to the rooms they serve.

Committee Approval – Hindes Road, Harrow

AUA’s Hindes Road scheme received committee approval, by unanimous decision, in Harrow last night. The site is located in a prominent position within Harrow and Wealdstone Intensification Area and Town Centre. The proposals include demolition and redevelopment to provide a part three, four and five-story building comprising a commercial unit on the ground floor (Class E), 18No. flats and 4No. terraced houses with associated landscaping and play area.

Start on Site – Munster House

Construction works to the transformation of Munster House has commenced on site. The project, located on Fulham Road, is a change of use from a language school to private residential units covering 2 floors over a restaurant and public house. Seven apartments are created within the existing building envelope together with an additional modern penthouse extension to the roof.

Completion – Fulham Penthouse

The new extension adds an additional storey to an existing top floor flat,  above commercial premises, at 526-528 Fulham Road.

The extended mansard slope to the additional storey continues the rhythm of the existing elevations to the property and the design for the new extension picks up on existing features and matches the materials of the building.

Completion – Couture House, Kensington

The Couture House, designed by AUA, nears completion. The project modifies an existing end of terrace house in Kensington by converting the previous garage into a simple & modern side extension over 3 floors. A frameless glass corner window reflects the double height interior space of the entrance and a recessed vertical column of glazing addresses the change of material on the side elevation.

Planning Consent – WBR Apartments

The London Borough of Hammersmith & Fulham has granted consent for the creation of 5No. new residential apartments on Wandsworth Bridge Road. This scheme forms part of an overall redevelopment and regeneration to a parade of terraces to create a total of 8 No. new apartments together with new ground floor retail units.

The main alterations to the property are to the rear of the building through the creation of new basement accommodation, glass lightwells, above ground extensions and loft conversions. The front of the property will be restored and refurbished back to its original vernacular to respect the protected parade within Studdridge Street Conservation Area.
