We’re delighted to have played a key role in securing a resolution to grant consent for this 100% affordable housing scheme, working alongside Wates Group, the London Borough of Havering, Hawkins\Brown and Avison Young planning department.   This important project will deliver 138 much-needed affordable homes, including 22 specifically for care leavers, as part of the wider £1.5 billion 12 Estates regeneration programme. With green spaces, community gardens, and improved public realm, the development will make a significant contribution to the revitalisation of Harold Hill Town Centre.   A huge well done to all involved—we’re looking forward to seeing this vision come to life! #DaylightSunlight #PlanningSuccess #Regeneration #AffordableHousing #LondonBoroughofHavering #Planningpermission #Londondevelopment #HaroldHillTownCentre #londonproperty #Haveringproperty #haveringdevelopment #affordablehomes #ukproperty #ukdevelopment #naturallight #lighthomes #residentialproperty #daylight #sunilght

Natural light can be a critical factor in permitted development following key amendments to the General Permitted Development Order 2015. However, some local planning authorities are misinterpreting the guidelines, potentially impeding viable permitted development schemes.

DPR is proud to have supported the Government Property Agency and its lead consultant, AtkinsRéalis, and planning consultant, Deloitte, in securing planning permission from Manchester City Council for a new Government Digital Campus in Manchester.   The £310m redevelopment on the former Central Retail Park in Ancoats will create a hub for 7,000 civil service jobs in Manchester with a focus around digital skills and contribute to regional economic growth.   A new public park will improve access to green space in the city centre and create a connection to Cotton Field Park and New Islington Marina.   Well done to all involved! #manchester #planning #daylight #sunlight   Image credit: AtkinsRéalis 

Fantastic work by the DPR team and the wider development team! Earlier this week, Southwark’s planning committee resolved to grant planning permission for Landsec’s 22–24 Southwark Bridge Road scheme, designed by Orms. A truly fantastic scheme that embraces a retro-first approach, unlocking the architectural and structural potential of the existing buildings to deliver Grade A+ world-class office space - all while maintaining a low-carbon footprint. Great to see a project that prioritises sustainability, innovation, and best-in-class workspace design. Well done to everyone involved! #Planning #Sustainability #Retrofit #Development #Architecture

DPR is pleased to announce that last night, Ealing’s planning committee unanimously resolved to grant planning permission for Barratt London London and Places for London's Bollo Lane site! This latest phase will deliver a substantial number of new homes within a series of buildings ranging from 8 to 18 stories, making a meaningful contribution to the area’s housing provision. The design is particularly impressive - prioritising public transport and active travel while celebrating the site’s transport and industrial heritage. Beyond the architecture, the development will introduce new green spaces, play areas, and significant public realm enhancements, including widened pavements and an upgraded Bollo Lane to improve the pedestrian experience. Daylight and sunlight were key considerations from the outset, and the DPR team collaborated closely with Allies and Morrison to achieve high-quality daylight and sunlight for future residents, carefully balancing this with the site’s various constraints. A fantastic milestone for the project and a positive step forward for Ealing! #PlanningSuccess #BolloLane #Ealing #DaylightAndSunlight #UrbanDesign #Placemaking

DPR are pleased to share that Legal & General have submitted a planning application for the £350m Bristol Temple Island masterplan regeneration project. This transformative scheme will reimagine the former diesel depot, creating a dynamic urban quarter featuring 520 new homes, premium office spaces, retail outlets, a hotel, and conference facilities all expected to generate up to 2,000 jobs. Designed with sustainability, inclusivity, and connectivity at its core, the project will deliver 40% affordable housing, target BREEAM Outstanding certification for commercial buildings, and enhance biodiversity through extensive planting and habitat creation. It will also introduce vibrant public spaces and encourage low-carbon living with improved pedestrian and cycle-friendly infrastructure. DPR are proud to be part of the design team supporting this landmark development, which will help to create a greener, more connected, and thriving future for Bristol. #BristolTempleIsland #Regeneration #SustainableDevelopment #Daylight #Sunlight #UrbanTransformation
