One of the key challenges facing heritage buildings in the UK is finding the balance between preservation and modern functionality. Historic England and Cadw stress the significance of safeguarding the historical integrity of these structures. However, incorporating modern amenities like heating, insulation, and accessibility can sometimes create a conflict between heritage values and practical requirements. Architects and conservationists are increasingly challenged to find solutions that honor both history and current needs. A completely vapour permeable approach is considered optimal in addressing these challenges. Properties constructed towards the late 19th Century often utilised cementitious materials, making the application of materials like lime render in renovations more intricate compared to buildings constructed with natural materials initially. This iconic Victorian half-timbered town centre building in the UK illustrated below, features large overhanging roofs that have effectively protected the external wall fabric over time. The primary issues we uncovered stemmed from blocked gutters and inadequate maintenance by previous owners. #HeritageBuildings #Preservation #Architects #Conservationists #HistoricIntegrity #ModernAmenities

Watching and documenting the transformation of Interlachen Country Club over the past year has been a rewarding challenge. Of all the content we created around the renovation, this series is my favorite. In the Fall of 2022, I got inspiration from a building construction timelapse and wondered if I could accomplish the same thing with our golf course. Over the next 6 months, I tested various software, flight paths, and workflows to make something like this a reality. I did tests for height, speed, and routing based on the layout of the time, but knew I'd need to capture the changes in routing (like the 10th green moving 50 yards). My goal was to fly over each hole once a week during construction, but each week presented a different challenge due to what part of the course was being worked on, heavy winds and smoke from wildfires (thanks Canada), maximizing flight time on each battery, etc. I ended up getting pretty close to one flyover a week but I had to make lots of adjustments along the way. I quickly gave up on the idea that each flight was going to be perfect and learned to chip away at optimizing each hole. I did my best to match everything up and trusted that I could do the rest in post-production. We used the footage in different ways over the summer for general course updates, but as construction started to wrap up I spent a lot of time syncing up all these flights and cutting them down into 1-2 minute videos. From there, Andrew Green crushed the narrations for us! It's not easy to succinctly describe all of the changes that happened in such a short amount of time, but he did a great job and really helped bring the final videos to life. We released the videos to our membership one hole at a time in our weekly Connections email starting in February and here we are a couple of months away from the grand re-opening! I learned so much about video production and golf course construction through this project and watching everything come to life has been such a joy!

Co-existence of Nature and Human Creation... The creation of structures with nature involves harmonizing architecture and the environment. By integrating buildings into their surroundings, we create spaces that respect and enhance the natural landscape. This relationship fosters a sense of place and encourages a deeper connection to the environment, benefiting both the habitant and habitat.

The Historic Preservation Awards program supports projects that preserve the Village’s historic character. Nominations are accepted through April 30 in four categories: Restoration, Remodeling Project, Streetscape Compatibility, and Architectural Details. https://bit.ly/2wocJq3

At what point in time do more recent changes to a building also become a part of its historical significance? In this video, Utah’s preservation architect and undercover superhero, Jansen Bennett, discusses how updates and improvements made to historic buildings can themselves become a defining characteristic of the building. This can leave preservationists and city officials scratching their heads about whether to restore a building to its original design, or preserve the changes made to it over time. #UtahSHPO, #BrighamCity, #ArchitectureHistory

Do you know of a fine Victorian or Edwardian building that is at real risk? Every year the Victorian Society publishes a list of the Top Ten endangered buildings. This list is highly influential and helps us ensure these buildings survive to delight future generations #TopTen25

As we have recently seen in our cities, architectural renovation and development are conflicting aspects of urban growth and preservation. As cities evolve, the tension between maintaining historical structures and accommodating new developments becomes increasingly pronounced. One of the primary arguments for architectural renovation is the preservation of historical significance and cultural identity. Many cities boast landmarks that embody their heritage, serving as tangible links to the past. On the contrary, development works often prioritize modernity and economic growth, sometimes at the expense of historical sites. New construction can overshadow or even demolish older buildings, leading to a loss of character and uniqueness in urban landscapes. Critics argue that this trend diminishes cultural diversity, erasing the historical narratives that define communities. Thus, the clash between preserving the past and embracing the future creates a fundamental tension in urban planning.
