KMHeritage
Change is constant in the built environment.
Historic buildings
and areas are often the focus of debate about how that change is
managed. The built heritage is a powerful physical expression of our
identities and histories, but it's also where we live, work, study and
entertain ourselves. Reconciling necessary change with the protection of
that which is most valuable in our heritage is a challenge -
particularly for those who are responsible for proposing and controlling
development.
A fundamental shift has occurred in the way the
historic built environment is perceived. A greater emphasis has been
placed on a broader and more inclusive notion of heritage.
When it comes to day-to-day work in the historic built environment,
certain key things continue to matter: gathering information, making
informed assessments, identifying significance, arguing the case for
change or preservation, negotiating acceptable solutions. This is the
work that KMHeritage does.
