From urban extensions and estate renewal through to individual residential projects, Lathams offers a comprehensive and interdisciplinary approach to housing.
We are committed to the creative re-use of both land and buildings in an age when the lack of ‘new’ sites makes such recycling both economic and environmental good sense.
For public sector clients such as housing market renewal and New Deal for Communities organisations, registered social landlords and local authorities, we produce masterplans, development briefs and feasibility studies, and undertake wide-ranging public consultation work.
In private sector housing projects, we are often sought for our ability to deliver viable residential solutions and achieve planning permission in situations where either the physical or policy context is challenging.
We are of course well-placed to offer housing design advice across both new-build and re-use situations. In fact, our new-build housing work for developers and house builders is often characterised by the need to address either conservation or regeneration issues in parallel, in order to secure planning permission. In addition to this wider context,we have also developed over many years a much sought-after expertise in building individual country homes.
