The Halifax town centre brief
For a Halifax town-centre fit-out, access and neighbouring occupation may define the programme. For a Savile Park house renovation, retained details and the household’s use may be the starting point. Make the project’s purpose explicit before borrowing a specification from another HX1 building.
Preparation guidance, not a survey of your property. The location photograph shows the area; it is not evidence of work by ATR.
