Stop the music when the question is so important and the answer is clear as mud.

Hi can you obtain a regularisation certificate if you have built your annexe a metre higher than your planning permission

0:31 Enough of the blasphemy … it tends to offend. Renovating Partners and whatnot 🤦‍♂️

I Love the advert, the man is gorgeous and a big smile comes across my usually miserable face every time it comes on 😃

Good content this, keep it going

This was so interesting!

4:39 “Looks like you’re slagging off a property. Do you need assistance? Nope. I’m very good at it, mate.” 😂

it might be Roy Rogers Git Along Little Dogies

You should make more videos like this on london architecture

These videos invariably show expensive houses with ample space for plant rooms and spare external space for outdoor units. More feedback on how the majority of properties, that are far smaller, can adopt heat pumps (that must suit the occupants lifestyles) would be far more beneficial

A great insight into the results of architectural design and how it can improve peoples lives. Well done Resi!

She had a good builder and not a chancer.

Interesting & I heartedly agree. my work is in residential buildings, especially the new buddies and I couldn't agree more. They are soulless, boring and so samey! I sometime walk past a client building as I can't tell them apart. And they usually have the same problems, caused by lazy design, shoddy construction, and poor management.

Those modern mid to highrise building are important in providing housing at scale. Landcost is a massiv issue. (It is lucrative to at some point building cost almost don't change for building 18 or 24 floors) You can clearly see the difference from those recent towers to those build innthe 1960 and 1970s like build in thamesmead or Ronan Point in Newham. Back the were prefab concrete slaps that were often build really badly. Towers had often been build not allined to a grid but rather placed in some lose greenspace.

Woah this is so odd. I'm from Derby. I moved to London 4 years ago and I keep saying "I'll never move back to Derby!!" Met my partner and she keeps saying "We need to move out of London to raise our family. How about Derby or Nottingham where you're from? You always brag about how green and spacious it is compared to London" Me: NO! Maybe my mind will change in a few years. There's something about London with its never ending rich history and constantly changing facade that makes it so hard to leave. Anyone who has been to Derby knows how same-y same-y it can be.

Entertaining watch, never knew there was so much history behind these windows!

4:13 The same elements? Where is the ornament? Ornament is central to the beauty of a building. Don't believe people who say the opposite. All great cities we visit, Prague, Rome, Venice, Vienna, Barcelona, have a lot of ornament. Absence of ornament feels depressing, no matter how interesting you make the volumes.

Which new developments are excluded?

I went to a boarding school for a bit that had a house dating back to the 1300s which had a bunch of windows bricked up because of this. The shame of it is that buildings could have unbricked their windows but never did. I wonder if it was fear of structural damage, complexities of modifying any listed building (even when restoring it closer to its original appearance) or what.

EPC is the reason some new builds have such tiny windows. Developers don’t want to cough up for better quality windows which keep the heath in better, and walls are cheaper and easier to insulate - so easier to put smaller windows so it get’s a higher EPC score.

This was great - really interesting to learn

Id read modern buildings are bricked up because its more energy efficient to just not have windows, so if they can put the energy rating up they will, and blank brick walls look weird

In Belgium we had a window tax until the First World War. When the Jerries bombed Ypres, they took down all those ugly bricked up windows.

If you’re having trouble getting bricked up you should speak with your primary care physician and possibly consult a urologist.

great video, interesting to learn about the history

Quite interesting actually, thanks for the history lesson

Slum housing for the 21st century

This is absolutely disgusting and heart breaking.😢

Is that paint color called gray-green?

What a lovely home not overdone ascestically. and retaining much of the character too.

This is a truly beautiful home in a style I really like. A bit of art nouveau, a bit of art deco and a bit of mid century that compliment each other seamlessly. Good job

Place is huge! I hope all the rooms are utilised! Beautify designed!

💚 Beautiful vast home ... With a matching garden that looks super special

4:21 not just ugly but HYPER UGLY!

❤👍🏻🏆

Is this another consequence of the population explosion? I’m wondering whether to vote Reform next month. 😕

squeeze you into smaller & smaller spaces designed not whats habitable in a 100years but designed for what's sellable now shocking...criminal

Places for people to live, not the mice some designers treat us like.

This mans hairy chest is distracting…in a good way

I don’t like open plan kitchen

The new builds are shoddy rubbish but form part of the WEF/UN plan to herd people into spaces where they can be monitored 24/7. Wellbeing of inhabitants is not considered and the prices of these lousy spaces are nothing but robbery. The practice of placing a kitchen into the living/dining room (where the dining table is often tiny only squashing 4 people ) is a marketing concept trick. Don't place cupboards and appliances onto a wall and dare to call it a kitchen. As for an en suite in a 2 bedroom apartment please see how foolish it is but marketed as luxury living. The other trap never discussed, service charges. Bad behaviour and bad mangement causes damage which must be repaired and costs passed onto residents. Where facilities are included such as a pool watch out. Drunken parties, friends of friends, pissing or defacating in the water, yes it happens and guess who pays.

I am very surprised with housing in London, it is really really bad, I wouldn't mind paying the high price I pay if my studio would have been a bit more modern, better ventilation system, better windows, and I wouldn't need to hear my neighboors showering or talking. Surprisingly enough, constructions in some poorest countries are better than the ones here.

Modern mansion blocks look like same dull grey blocks.

The blue prints are too small to make any sense

They feel cheap. And they look cheap. They won't stand the test of time and will look even worse in 20 years. That modern mansion block looks like a detention centre.

I really don't understand why anyone lives in London by choice. Horrible place.

The Peckham mansion blocks are hideous and brutal? Why? They have absolutely no soul

Sorry but the aesthetically, the 'modern' mansion block is even worse than the high rise to look at even if they are structurally sound. Can't we have the original Victorian/Georgian look too? But great video.

Stop london growing

Service charges in mansion blocks are just ridiculous
