Architectural design & build in Carbis Bay
Carbis Bay is the residential coastal suburb of St Ives, climbing up the cliffs above one of the calmest beaches on the north coast and built largely between 1900 and 1970. AONB designation covers the whole village; coastal views and cumulative cliffside development are weighed in most applications. Carbis Bay sits inside St Ives parish's principal residence policy area.

Architectural Design & Planning in Carbis Bay
We prepare site-specific concept design, planning drawings and supporting documents that give your project the strongest possible chance of consent — and a clear path through Cornwall Council's planning process.
Planning Applications in Carbis Bay
We prepare and submit planning applications to Cornwall Council and, where relevant, the Isles of Scilly authority — handling drawings, statements, validation queries and officer negotiation from start to determination.
Building Regulations Drawings in Carbis Bay
Approved planning gets you permission to build. Building regulations drawings are what gets you a building you can actually live in — drawn properly, they shorten the build, save the builder time and keep building control on side.
House Extensions in Carbis Bay
Extensions are the bread and butter of Cornish homes — adding the kitchen-diner the original layout never had, the bedroom for a growing family, or the light and views the back of the house should always have had.
Bespoke New Builds in Carbis Bay
A bespoke new build is the longest project we do, and the most rewarding. From plot appraisal through planning, building regulations and construction, you work with one team from the first sketch to the handover walk-round.
Renovations & Remodels in Carbis Bay
Cornish housing stock is brilliant and infuriating in equal measure. We renovate cottages, farmhouses, mid-century homes and post-war estates — opening up layouts, fixing damp, adding light and bringing the property up to a standard worth living in.
Loft Conversions in Carbis Bay
A well-designed loft conversion adds a bedroom, an en-suite and useful storage to homes that were never built with the upper floor in mind — usually inside permitted development and almost always cheaper per square metre than extending sideways.
Project Management & Full Build in Carbis Bay
Once drawings are approved, the build is the bit that decides whether you get the home you imagined or a frustrating compromise. We deliver projects on a single contract — design, drawings, approvals and construction — so the team that drew it is the team that builds it.
