*As of August 2026, the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) has been updated and the policy known as Paragraph 84e has now been moved to HO11. You can read more about this change over in our dedicated HO11 article on our website, but the below still applies to the new policy.
Building a home in the countryside represents a taxing but ultimately rewarding venture. These projects have, however, significantly benefited from the introduction and revision of HO11 - formerly Paragraph 84e and before this, Paragraphs 80, 55 and 79 - of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF).
What Are HO11 Houses?
HO11 allows for the construction of new dwellings in rural areas provided the design is of an exceptional quality. Often also referred to as the ‘Country House Exemption Clause’, it ensures that these pioneering, original designs are given the green light. The design’s quality and originality must be demonstrable during the proposal stage, and this is then reviewed by an independent panel.
To qualify for HO11, the proposed dwelling must meet specific criteria related to architectural excellence, landscape design, and sustainability. Much of the legislation’s intention is to encourage innovation, enough so that it positively contributes to its environment.
Anyone seeking to construct a new dwelling under the HO11 clause needs to demonstrate how their design meets the policy's requirements. This may include but is not limited to considerations of the site's ecological impact, the use of local materials, and the overall aesthetic contribution to the surrounding landscape.
We are currently working on some HO11 projects and look forward to sharing updates with you soon.
You may be familiar with our project in Leicestershire. Work in here is progressing well. We will keep you posted on the planning for the newer projects.

Tye Architects is pleased to be among the inspiring global design talent to have been shortlisted as a finalist in this year’s SBID International Design Awards for its entry, GT Bank in the 08.Office Design Under 2,000 SqM category.

Evaluated by a panel of distinguished, industry-leading experts for functionality, innovation, creativity and technical ex*****on, an SBID Award is considered one of the most coveted accolades for design excellence. Success in the GOLD-rated Awards programme demonstrates the highest level of design skill and professional mastery across the interior design profession.

Guaranty Trust Bank (UK) Ltd’s new headquarters occupies a six-storey building in Fitzrovia, London, delivering a refined banking environment that reflects the bank’s dual identity: proudly African and globally positioned. The project brief called for a full-building fit-out to accommodate 120 staff, a secure vault and comms infrastructure, and a high-end client banking floor — all within a modest footprint and a fixed £2 million budget.
To complete the final stage of judging, the public are now invited to vote for their favourite finalist designs - accounting for 10% of the overall results.
