Heritage
We believe historic buildings require both imagination and restraint.
Our heritage work spans listed buildings, conservation areas and scheduled monuments — from the careful adaptation of college estates and cultural institutions to striking contemporary insertions within agricultural barns and National Landscapes.
We are drawn to the challenge of introducing contemporary elements into sensitive historic settings. Going beyond restoration, we believe in thoughtful reuse: repairing historic fabric while integrating contemporary design with clarity and restraint.
We bring a holistic approach to our
architecture and heritage projects.
“The combination of well informed consultants, willing conservation officer and a sensitive scheme has resulted in a well considered, light-touch conversion that is thoughtful, elegant and practical.”

Our in-house conservation expertise supports both the design and the consent process. We prepare heritage statements and work with conservation officers, Historic England and specialist consultants to explain the significance of a place and the reasoning behind proposed changes.

“Sometimes a modern extension can transform the way we live and bring pleasure to the daily routine. In these extensions the strong connection between inside and outside and the light and airy spaces created contrast vividly with the inward looking and relatively dark spaces of the original building.”

Our approach to these sensitive sites has been recognised with the RIBA South West and Wessex Conservation Award (2025) and the RIBA South West Conservation Award (2017), alongside a commendation in the Listed & Modern awards.
“They spent a lot of time to really understand how we wanted to use the space, its features and constraints, to produce a scheme that is exciting, practical, innovative and beautiful. ”
