Architects and Engineers in Highams Park
Local knowledge of Highams Park's leafy streets, Area of Special Character and Epping Forest setting, from first feasibility conversation through to a finished project.
Living and Building in Highams Park
Highams Park is a leafy suburb on the Overground at the edge of Epping Forest, known for its Edwardian and interwar houses and a village-like centre.
Diagram X brings AEC (Architecture, Engineering and Construction) together for Highams Park homeowners, from extensions and loft conversions to complete refurbishments.
Planning in Highams Park
The Highams area is designated an Area of Special Character, covered by its own Article 4 direction that came into effect in September 2020, which removes permitted development rights in the area.
Epping Forest land and protected trees nearby add further layers, so each property's designations are checked before design work begins.
Refurbishing in Highams Park
Highams Park's Edwardian and interwar houses are often well built but dated inside, so refurbishment starts from opening up light and layout and improving energy performance.
A distinctive period feature earns its place when retained, but a confidently modern result is always the starting assumption.
Construction in Highams Park
Mature trees, regular plots and neighbours close by shape access, storage and sequencing, alongside party wall agreements.
We plan for these from the outset, so a Highams Park project is built with care.
