Our built heritage belongs to everyone, with our shared memory and collective experience of space contributing to our sense of community. As architects, protecting this history whilst keeping buildings in use can be both a privilege and a challenge, a dichotomy often resulting in better architecture.
Part of WilkinsonEyre's ‘Transformations’ series, join the Chair of the 20th Century Society, Hugh Pearman and WilkinsonEyre Board Director, Stafford Critchlow, in conversation around the pros and cons of architecture in and around Listed Buildings.
Uncover the challenges, tensions, discoveries and beauty in projects which have navigated the complexities of working with Listed buildings.
