Heritage and Conservation
Breathing new life into heritage buildings and celebrating their history is one of the challenges for heritage architects and it is one we relish at Ercle. Historic buildings are a vital part of the country’s heritage, and their conservation is key to maintaining our rich and diverse cultural legacy.
Defining the juxtaposition between old and new using innovative and sympathetic methods is something at which we excel, bringing about buildings which look towards the future whilst not forgetting the past.
Our pragmatic approach to conservation is coupled with a deep respect for the cultural relevance of our local heritage, whilst driving ahead with a clear vision for its future needs. We start by interpreting the importance of any heritage building, and work closely with the building to bring forward the best possible outcome for each and every client.
Heritage Planning Permission
We manage a wide range of listed building planning applications and work with a team of specialists (such as local authority archaeologists and Historic England) as appropriate.
As with everything we do here at Ercle, the emphasis is on you and your vision. We nurture relationships built on trust and cohesion which is vitally important when working with a building which is woven with the history of times past.
Planning permission for conservation and heritage projects can be very complex and requires the technical knowledge and experience of a professional team. Our planning experts have extensive experience in projects ranging from simple alterations to planning consent for listed building remodelling and complex renovations.
Sensitive Renovations
It’s not just the building’s structure which needs to be addressed when looking at heritage conservation work. There are things like internal joinery and bespoke heritage detailing to consider. If you’re looking for an architect for properties rich with heritage, you need to consider using an architect like Ercle who takes a holistic approach to architecture practice. Using sympathetic and innovative design approaches, that bring new life to heritage buildings, whilst also celebrating their culture takes patience and intuition. We help breathe new life into historic properties, whilst never forgetting where they’ve come from.
