Space EDIT
Design- led development approach
One-to-one development training for small and medium-sized property developers.
A Design-Led Development approach, based on my own experience developing property.
I will help you learn to make better development decisions, invest where it matters and make more of your property's potential. Drawing on my many decades of design-led development experience, I offer one-to-one training. In each training session, we incorporate your own development project, so you experience the benefits live.

A Different Approach to Property Development
Property development isn't just about buying the right property or managing a budget.
It's about recognising what a building could become and understanding the decisions needed to make it work.
Too often, decisions about layout, design, budgets, trades and the market are considered separately, when they should be working together from the beginning.
Space EDIT brings these elements together through practical, one-to-one Design-Led Development Training, working directly with developers on their own properties.
Why Space EDIT?
RECOGNISING POTENTIAL
Looking beyond a property's existing layout to identify opportunities, improve its appeal and create value.
A COMPLETE VISION
Bringing together design, budget, construction, trades and market considerations so decisions work together, rather than separately.
LEARNING BY DOING
Practical, one-to-one Design-Led Development Training, working directly with you at your property to make informed decisions.
COMMERCIAL VALUE
I show you how to plan in a streamlined way to ensure that decisions are made in the right order and to eliminate expensive mistakes.
MARKET STRATEGY
Consider who the property is for and how that should influence all the decisions you make throughout the development.
DESIGN DIRECTION
Materials, finishes, colour, and the property's overall direction as part of the development, that need to be considered from the outset
BRINGING IT ALL TOGETHER
I'll train you to have the eye to see how the different decisions connect, what to prioritise and how to move the development forward as a whole.
Your project. Your decisions. A Design-Led Development approach.
PROPERTY ANALYSIS
Understand what you're working with, its strengths, limitations and where the opportunities may be.
CLEVER BUDGET
We look at where the money needs to go, where it can make the most difference, and where you can avoid unnecessary spending.
MANAGING PROFESSIONALS
I help you to understand who you may need for the project, from surveyors to builders and trades. You'll learn when their input matters and how to coordinate and plan.
MAXIMISE SPACE POTENTIAL
We examine how the property works, how the space is being used and where changes could improve the development. This is key to maximising the potential of your property.

Why Work With Me
AN EXPERIENCE DEVELOPER’S PERSPECTIVE
I've developed my own properties, from houses and apartments to conversions, over the course of several decades. I understand first-hand the decisions, costs and practicalities involved in taking a development forward.
ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN BACKGROUND
My background as an architectural designer brings another perspective to property development. I look at space, layout and the decisions that shape how a property works, while considering development costs, value and potential returns
A HANDS-ON APPROACH TO DEVELOPMENT
By working with your own live development project, you gain all the benefits of a consultant alongside those of a trainer.
