The front is pretty much as it always has been in these plans and my mock-up below. The window illustrations are a bit closer to what we hope to have, however.

Here at the back you can see the pitched roof extension gable in all its glazed glory, as well as the new patio doors from the living room.

Ehmm, for some reason the application requires a roof plan, and here it is. The two white rectangles are the kitchen skylights. We'll be having a couple of solar panels on the back and one on the side when this is built, I think.

Another dull one: this is the detached side, with the back door into the utility room and the en suite window upstairs. If you remove the exterior wall you get...

... this section through the (anti-clockwise from top-right) dressing room, en suite, master bedroom, kitchen, utility room and TV room. The viewpoint is looking out of the patio doors in the dining area which have a double window to the left of them.

Not much has changed here since the last set: the utility room has moved forward to make the kitchen bigger and 20cm of extension width has been sacrificed to the side passage. The kitchen is very nearly a perfect L and we decided at the last minute to move the front door forward -- we'd like a porch, but we need that space even more.

Upstairs, behold the hotpress! The master bedroom is looking pretty small, but with a separate dressing room that shouldn't be a problem. There was much debate about the bathroom layout, including the logistics of moving the whole right-hand wall about a foot further right to make the right-hand bedrooms fit flush and give more bathroom space. We decided against it: the bathroom has beaten us and will remain tiny, though moving the hotpress will allow some flexibility.
And there you have it. The drawings are done, the site notice is laminated and the display stake is ready for the front garden. On Wednesday, if they do what we've paid them to do, the local paper will print our notice and fire the starting pistol for real.
