Conservation

Working in a heritage setting, whether that is in a conservation area or a listed building, presents a range of additional considerations over and above the normal project.

Our Principle Architect David Smith, has been successfully working on all forms of conservation projects, for over 20 years.

Our approach to conservation is a practical one. We believe that in order to stay viable buildings in a conservation setting need to respond to the requirements of modern life.

Conservation Areas

Listed Buildings

Heritage Architecture

We understand that historical fabric and detail needs to be protected for posterity. But we believe conservation is primarily about conserving a quality of design and workmanship, not simply slavishly copying a historical style.

Working closely with clients and appropriate expert specialists (architectural historians, specialist contractors and suppliers) we will ensure that your conservation project both serves your needs and respects the quality and character of the original building or conservation setting.
