WE ARE Open

With a small and specialist team, our approach is straightforward. We discover exactly what you want and need and then involve you at every stage while we make it happen.

We do everything possible to realise your ambitions by creating the perfect space for you and your family to live in, rent out or sell. Experience tells us that being Open always achieves the best results.

Open TO EVERY CHALLENGE

The first stage of every project requires investment on our side and trust from yours. Our process is free of charge to initial determination. That’s why our first conversation isn't about fees or planning or design. It’s about you and how we establish the common ground between us that’s needed to achieve something special.

Experience also tells us that your situation will be unique and personal to you. So we are Open to structuring the project to reflect your circumstances and offer flexibility across every area to make it happen.

Open APPROACH

We’re Open in name and Open in nature. You have direct contact with our project team and the constant support of a dedicated client manager. From a simple call to online access to current plans in state of the art formats, you’re always fully involved – and hopefully enjoying the experience.

We operate with a senior and accomplished team. Underlining this, our founder Steve Hayes visits the chosen site, reporting back to you honestly on its potential and pitfalls.

At this point, we agree transparent terms with you. Our architectural team and expert consultants then produce a compelling application for development. Once consent is achieved, we move to, and agree with you, the next stage of your project.

We approach your project by putting ourselves in your shoes. By adding the required understanding and expertise, we can create the perfect home for your lifestyle or a valuable investment opportunity for you and your family.

Open DELIVERY

Every decision for a farmer or land owner is far reaching. So we build close relationships with all those we work with. As always, keeping everyone up to speed throughout.

With simplified design and planning processes, our team is determined to deliver at a sustained level of excellence across each project’s diverse elements. We never forget that being Open also means listening to you, learning from you and being responsible and clear with everyone.

Open TO CHANGE

Today we all face far-reaching changes in land use, building methods, market expectations, legislation, even in ideas of how we live and work in our homes. This means answering questions that weren’t even thought about perhaps just months ago.

Change is also the time for fresh thinking. As responsible innovators, we believe the best way to deliver your - or any - project is by opening eyes to possibilities that haven’t yet been considered. From the materials we advocate, to planning for inheritance tax and preserving your estate.

YOUR WAY FORWARD IS Open

When we are truly Open, every project is the opportunity to create the right answer for your future in a characterful and luxurious home and fine investment.
