Listed & historic buildings
Change that respects what is already there.
Historic buildings can often adapt successfully, but alterations need to be based on an understanding of significance, materials and the existing fabric.
Sensitive alterations and additions
We develop proposals for listed and traditional buildings including internal alterations, extensions, repairs and changes of use.
Work may include
- Measured surveys and record drawings
- Design development
- Planning and listed building consent drawings
- Coordination with heritage statements and specialist advice
- Technical detailing appropriate to traditional construction
Practical rather than theatrical conservation
The objective is to understand the important parts of a building, avoid unnecessary harm and find a workable way to accommodate modern use.
