DESIGN • DRAWINGS • PLANNING
Annexe design & planning.
Clear information. Confident next steps.
Whether you are considering a detached annexe or adapting existing space, the relationship with the main dwelling is central to the planning brief.
A clear written scope. An agreed fee. No obligation to proceed.

Extra accommodation, carefully considered.
Explore the service groupDevelop the layout
Consider access, accommodation, outdoor space and connections to the main home.
Agree the applications
Planning and technical requirements depend on the proposal. An annexe should not be assumed to qualify as a permitted garden outbuilding.
Know what is included.
Your written quotation confirms the drawings, application support and revision allowance for your brief.
We identify any survey information and external specialist input needed. Council charges and separate consultant appointments are confirmed before that work proceeds.
A few useful answers
What do you need for an initial quotation?
Your project postcode, the type of property and a short description of what you want to change. Photographs or existing plans help, but you do not need a complete design brief to get in touch.
How much will my drawings cost?
We quote for your project and the work you need. Your written proposal sets out the drawings, application support, revision allowance and payment stages. Council charges and specialist reports are identified separately.
WHY AFFORDABLE ARCHITECTURAL?
Good design.
Clear advice.
Approachable fees.
Founded by Ryan Skitt in April 2024, our service is built around helping people move forward with confidence. Affordable does not mean compromising the care your project receives.
