Understanding, maintaining, and managing heritage places is at the heart of conservation practice. Although strongly connected with the past, heritage places form an integral part of our modern environment and are important resources for a more sustainable future. They can reflect valuable aspects of our history, create distinctive environments, and provide a sense of identity and continuity. Maintaining a balance between the past, present and future of these heritage places is a key focus of what we do at The Heritage Studio.
