Future Planning & Development Architectural Studio was founded by Toby McCulloch and Tom Burns. With a decade of collaboration, they have designed thoughtful and practical developments, buildings, and spaces. This extensive experience includes a proven track record of helping to securing planning permission for over 10,000 homes and transforming even the most challenging sites into successful, award-winning environments.  

Our expertise spans a wide range of projects, from individual homes to large-scale regeneration schemes, including mixed-use buildings, hotels, offices, and retirement communities. More than just meeting standards, we focus on designing spaces that feel inviting and connected to their surroundings. By understanding how people live, work, and interact, we create designs that foster a true sense of place and bring joy to those who experience them.  

At the core of the practice is a commitment to providing clients with a seamless architectural and planning service. Our integrated approach, achieved through close collaboration with the in-house planning team, ensures efficient project delivery from concept to completion. We specialise in achieving successful outcomes, even on the most complex and constrained sites.  

Our approach is guided by collaboration, simplicity, and practicality, delivering buildings and spaces that are easy to construct and cost-effective.
