TEN new jobs will be created if a new factory which embroiders school uniforms is given the go-ahead.
TM Trustees Keward/Leame Elite Account has asked Nottingham City Council for permission to build in Merchant Street, Bulwell.
The development would include an apartment, a shop and storage space.
The main function would be an embroidery workshop supplying clothing for schools in the area.
If the application is successful, a house will be converted into offices, and a garage and storage buildings will be demolished.
The application states: "The proposal recognises the domestic scale on and along Merchant Street, plus the more industrial scale of buildings on the site to its rear.
"The building is intended to fit in with the domestic scale, limiting the development to two storeys, with 2.6m floor to ceiling heights. The rear block is similar in height and mass to the original. The rear store will be lower than the existing garage and set away from the adjoining property, albeit the walls that form the garage will remain as they form the boundaries.
"The eclectic mix of styles is now brought into one contemporary modern style that allows identification of blocks and uses whilst giving the development a holistic feel."
