Design and access statements are now required to support all but
householder applications.
The application drawings should show the layout on the site or, for
outline applications, an indicative layout. The statement should explain
why this layout has been chosen, and how it will work and fit with its
surroundings.
For small developments this may be very simple, for
example, just saying that the building faces an existing road. But for
larger
plans, the layout may be balancing a variety of design features such as
solar gain, crime prevention and accessibility. In these cases, statements
should clearly explain the design decisions that have been made.
