Stephen Levrant Heritage Architecture Ltd is an established high profile, expert practice of conservation architects and historic building consultants

tions are renowned for an intricate and holistic approach. We strive to promote quality with imagination and flair, where solutions for modern buildings in sensitive areas are always dictated by context. We provide designs for or advice upon additions and extensions to historic buildings as well as appraisals of new buildings in historic contexts. Our built heritage consultancy services deal with the conservation of listed buildings; complex legal and planning matters; urban design and regeneration in conservation areas; and the appraisal of tall buildings having impacts on city form and townscape. The assessment of impact likely to result from particular developments as well as the appraisal of alternative developments form a major part of our workload, and as a result, we thrive on challenging problems. Philosophy: The practice philosophy is based upon the SPAB principles of conservation and repair rather than replacement and renewal. The art of conservation is dependant upon knowledge and experience of historic methods of construction, decoration and furnishing and a discerning eye for detail. This historical accuracy is fundamental to all our heritage projects. We believe that the secret of preservation and good husbandry lies in a well considered and contrived programme for maintenance. In this regard, we undertake historic appraisals, condition assessments and the preparation of schedules of significance, morphological plans and repair schedules, which provide detailed maintenance regimes and a serve to inform potential change. We believe that the fabric of a building must be understood, both as a whole and as a collection of constituent parts to be treated and preserved individually. We are always interested in formulating new methods and approaches for preserving original materials which may have hitherto never been consciously conserved. We believe the future of our built heritage rests with those of us who are committed to sympathetic and thoughtful conservation.
