North Devon architecture, rooted in rural experience – Specialising in Class Q, Barn Conversions and Rural Planning

NPAS is a family-run architectural practice based in North Devon, specialising in Class Q, barn conversions, rural planning and residential architecture across Devon and the South West.

With over 40 years of hands-on experience, we combine creative design with practical knowledge of planning, construction and rural development. We work with homeowners, farmers, landowners, developers and businesses to unlock the potential of buildings, land and property.

As Class Q and Barn Conversion specialists in North Devon, we understand the opportunities and challenges that come with developing agricultural and rural buildings.

Whether you’re considering a Class Q conversion, traditional Barn Conversions, Farm Diversification or the wider development potential of your land, we can assess the possibilities and help identify the right planning route.

Rural by nature. Personal by approach.

Our North Devon roots give us a genuine understanding of the countryside, its buildings, landscapes and communities. We combine this local knowledge with extensive rural planning experience to create thoughtful architecture that respects its surroundings while meeting the needs of modern life.

From bespoke new homes and extensions to Class Q conversions, barn conversions, agricultural, residential and commercial projects, every project begins with listening.

We’ll take the time to understand your ambitions and guide you through the process with clear, practical advice — from initial ideas and planning through to technical design and Building Regulations.
