We are pleased to share that one of our Associates, Steve has finally tied the knot to his Architect wife and better half Nicola! And Annabel one of our Architectural Designers also tied the knot to her Firefighter husband Richard just a week later! Both celebrations were wonderful and we can see that both couples look very happy! (and of course the office dog had to make an appearance!)
What’s more both couples then took their honeymoon trip to Bali (though not together we might add!). We at MRT wish both couples a long and happy marriage together.
Stratford Rotary / Shakespeare Hospice Charity Golf Day
MRT Architects were pleased to support the event again this year. The golf day went well raising approximately £4000 for the Shakespeare Hospice. We had beautiful weather but unfortunately we were not amongst the prize winners this year – but an enjoyable time for all involved.

MRT gain planning permission for the conversion of a dilapidated outbuilding
MRT have gained planning permission for the conversion of a dilapidated outbuilding in the curtilage of a listed building, into a home office and gymnasium for the occupiers. A combination of low impact construction techniques and the specification of natural, breathable materials helped gain the approval of both the conservation and planning officers.
Planning Permission granted for a substantial extension of a grand house in the West Midlands green belt
MRT and the owners’ family are delighted with the Detailed Planning Permission granted for a substantial extension of a grand house in the West Midlands green belt.
MRT were asked to step in to see if a previous planning refusal by others and an appeal dismissal could be overturned.
The proposal, inspired by the setting, was a design-led approach with a traditional design of stone, handmade bricks and clay tiles which complement this large country house. Planning Permission was granted with few conditions for a kitchen, utility, food caterers’ preparation room, gym, an extensive bedroom suite above with balcony overlooking the parkland garden setting and the open countryside of the green belt.
