Architectural drawings are utilised for a number of purposes, and can come in numerous various types depending on your preferences. For most extensions or loft conversions at least some form of architectural drawing will be required, either to submit to councils or local authorities for planning permission or building regulations approval, or for use by building contractors to correctly complete the building works.
Floor plans, site plans and elevation drawings will usually need to be crafted to submit to local authorities to either gain planning permission or to ensure that the proposed work is undertaken within permitted development rights. These drawings will show the scale of the proposed works, and offer the planning officer a sense of how the work may interact with the nearby area. For construction requirements and for building regulations approval, technical drawings are often generated which detail the types of materials employed in the building work on a structural and insulation level.

The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea is an inner London borough of Royal borough status, to the west of the centre. The borough was established in 1965 from the former boroughs of Kensington and Chelsea. Kensington’s Royal Borough status was inherited by the new borough. It covers an area of 4.68 square miles. As the smallest borough in London and the second smallest district in England, this urban area is amongst the most densely populated in the United Kingdom.
In 2005, the borough had more of its land covered by domestic buildings than anywhere else in England at 19 per cent, which is over 50% of the national average. Additionally, it had the fifth highest proportion of land covered by non-domestic buildings at 12 per cent.
The borough is immediately to the west of the City of Westminster and to the east of the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham. It contains major museums and universities in Albertopolis, department stores such as Harrods, Peter Jones and Harvey Nichols, and embassies in Belgravia, Knightsbridge and Kensington Gardens. It is home to the Notting Hill Carnival, Europe’s largest. It includes lots of the most costly residential districts in London and even in the world, in addition to districts with higher levels of social housing and poverty. The local authority is Kensington and Chelsea London Borough Council. The borough’s motto is Quam Bonum in Unum Habitare, which is usually roughly translated as ‘How good to dwell in unity’.
