Heritage Conservation
Supporting historic designs
Heritage designs hold our histories. That means they need innovative strategies and planning to ensure they last—they need to stand for longer and survive to enrich future generations. Our engineers work with various stakeholders to meet today’s construction, occupation, and safety standards. Heritage designs require a comprehensive understanding of local and international best practices—as well as products available—to ensure a sensitive approach to preserving original feature designs.
Whether it’s a performing arts centre, museum, or commercial office space being integrated into a heritage property, our passion is to produce unique places for clients and communities to share.
Palais Theatre Refurbishment
Our team returned life to the Palais Theatre as part of the council and Victorian state government's drive to replace the building’s weathered façade—alongside enhancing the depreciating interior structure. Following a complete and studied approach, executing a design that supported heritage conditions was crucial for the refurbishment's success. Read MoreOur People
