Cultural Heritage studies

 

 

Transitioning cities are undergoing transformation and need to modernise by harmoniously integrating their natural and built heritage.

Our approach

What should be conserved and what should be restored? Our heritage surveys help architects and project managers identify the relevant factors and choose the right restoration options for renovation or conversion projects in a way that always takes the social dimension into account. Beyond the decision-making processes and the importance of the social and political aspects, we believe that respect for the environment, built or natural, always implies respect for its users.
