  • Do architects find mood boards useful?

    I've made a mood board for the interior design of my dream extension. I'm going to engage an architect later this year and I'm wondering if the mood board will be useful or should I keep this to myself?

    Drainage and Rainwater

    Hi we have a 1900 house, drainage survey has stated rain water is entering the sewage pipe to our cess tank. We have never had a problem with over flowing or anything. I don’t know where we would put a soakaway . Is there anything that allows this as drainage system is so old?

    Second-hand aerial

    Do you think it’s okay to buy an aerial second-hand? Or would issues with quality and the longevity of the equipment make it not worthwhile? I guess my query is more so, whether it’s overall worthwhile, when weighing up any saved money vs. the risks of getting a lower quality aerial? What do you think? Thanks.
