# The Build Concept (TBC)

> Architectural practice specialising in residential design, planning, and construction-led solutions across Hertfordshire, Essex, and London.

The Build Concept (TBC) bridges the gap between architectural vision and construction reality. Based in Sawbridgeworth, we leverage a background in construction to provide designs that are aesthetically ambitious yet technically buildable, saving clients time and reducing unforeseen costs.

## Core Capabilities
- **Residential Design:** House extensions, loft conversions, interior remodelling, and new builds.
- **Planning Expertise:** Specialised knowledge in Hertfordshire Green Belt regulations and 2025 planning policy changes.
- **Visualisation:** High-end 3D renderings to bridge the gap between concept and reality.
- **Construction Insight:** Practical design approach to identify and solve structural issues during the drawing phase.
