Designing the House and Meeting Planning Permission Requirements

In this chapter, they discuss the challenge of reconciling the desire for a 100-year-old house with lots of character and the benefits of modern living. They suggest distilling the aspects liked about older houses and incorporating them into a modern home while still ensuring it meets the needs and preferences of the homeowner. They also mention the limitations of older architectural vernacular and the compromises that need to be made in the design process. The chapter ends with a mention of needing to satisfy planning permission requirements.
