We provide specialist advice on daylight, sunlight and right of light for development projects of all scales. Our work is based on a clear principle: daylight assessment is not a box-ticking exercise but a design process that requires context, judgement and a balanced approach.

We help project teams understand how BR 209 should be used in planning and how its flexibility can support high-quality, context-appropriate design. We explain what is reasonable in urban environments, how different building forms behave and how to demonstrate that a proposal delivers good daylight within real-world constraints.

We also assess right of light in parallel with planning. These legal rights operate independently of planning policy and must be tested early in the design process to manage risk effectively. By combining planning daylight expertise with a strong understanding of right of light, we help clients avoid late surprises and make informed decisions.

Our work supports architects, developers and planning teams from concept through planning and detailed design. We focus on clear communication, robust analysis and solutions that improve design quality. Our approach ensures that daylight and sunlight are considered early enough to influence massing, layout and facade strategy and that the final scheme is both well-designed and defensible.
