Custom home design in Canary Wharf
Canary Wharf is London Borough of Tower Hamlets's late-1980s through 2020s new-build towers (20-75 storeys) on former west india docks submarket. Every Canary Wharf residential tower over 18m is a 'higher-risk building' under the Building Safety Act 2022 — meaning Accountable Person duties, Building Assessment Certificates, and Gateway Three consent for substantial alterations like kitchen-layout reconfiguration that affect compartmentation.

Every Canary Wharf residential tower over 18m is a 'higher-risk building' under the Building Safety Act 2022 — meaning Accountable Person duties, Building Assessment Certificates, and Gateway Three consent for substantial alterations like kitchen-layout reconfiguration that affect compartmentation.
Because Canary Wharf is a privately-owned estate, the Canary Wharf Group's estate covenants regulate everything from blind colour to external aerial installation — these covenants sit on top of leasehold and planning controls, creating a three-tier consent stack.
London City Airport's runway approach line passes ~2km south, so roof-level external works (crane lift, tall plant) require Airport Safeguarding consultation and night-time curfew on lift-crane operation.

Who is Baily?
Baily is named after Francis Baily — an English stockbroker who retired at 51, became an astronomer, and in 1836 described something on the edge of a solar eclipse that nobody had properly articulated before: a string of bright beads of sunlight breaking through the valleys along the moon’s rim.
He wasn’t the first to see them. Edmond Halley saw them in 1715 and barely noticed. Baily’s contribution was clarity — describing exactly what was happening, in plain language, so vividly that the whole field of astronomy paid attention. The phenomenon is still called Baily’s beads.
That’s what we wanted our AI to do. Every inbound call and text has signal in it — a homeowner’s real question, a timeline, a budget, a hesitation that means “yes but.” Baily listens to every one, 24/7, and finds the beads of light.
Baily was a businessman before he was a scientist. That’s our vibe too.
