• Conservation and reordering of churches and other places of worship

Our conservation architect combines technical knowledge, practical experience, and a deep respect for traditional craftsmanship to ensure each project is both sensitive to its context and achievable in practice.

 

Conservation Approach

 

We believe conservation architecture should be collaborative, informed, and sustainable. Every building tells a story — our role is to understand that narrative and help it evolve responsibly. Whether working on a Grade I listed church, a Georgian townhouse, or a vernacular cottage, we aim to achieve design solutions that respect the past while meeting the needs of the present.

 

Our approach integrates:

• Research-led understanding of historic fabric

• Traditional repair and conservation techniques

• Contemporary design principles applied with sensitivity

• Commitment to environmental sustainability and long-term stewardship
