heritage & conservation
Working with listed buildings or within conservation areas requires more than architectural skill - it demands a deep respect for heritage, a strategic understanding of planning frameworks, and an ability to balance tradition with innovation.
We specialise in navigating complex heritage planning applications with care, clarity, and creativity - ensuring that every change enhances the legacy of your property while meeting modern needs.
preserving history, designing for the future
We begin with an in-depth analysis of your building’s listing status, planning history, conservation constraints, and applicable local and national heritage policies.
We work closely with conservation officers, historians, and planning consultants to understand your site’s historical context - ensuring that proposals are rooted in knowledge, not assumption.
Whether it’s a discreet addition, an interior transformation, or a full restoration - we develop architectural solutions that respond to the spirit, materiality, and craftsmanship of your heritage property. Our design is led by sensitivity, but never compromise - achieving a harmonious dialogue between past and present.
making the case for change
We prepare robust planning submissions tailored specifically for heritage projects. This includes:
-
Heritage Impact Assessments
-
Design & Access Statements
-
Conservation Justification Reports
-
Historic fabric assessments and schedules of repair
These documents provide planning officers with a clear, professional rationale for the proposed works - showing not just what’s being changed, but why it matters.
