Transform an existing residential property into a well-planned and functional House in Multiple Occupation (HMO) with our professional architectural drawing and CAD services.

We carefully consider room layouts, circulation, communal spaces, kitchens, bathrooms and overall functionality to create efficient and comfortable living
From the initial site survey and existing drawings through to detailed proposed layouts and technical documentation, we provide a complete CAD drawing service to help develop your HMO project.
Our focus is on creating efficient, practical and clearly documented HMO layouts, while considering the relevant planning, Building Regulations and property requirements.
