We understand the importance of conserving historical and listed buildings and the sensitivities of working in conservation areas. Our dedicated architectural heritage team allows us to offer expert opinion on projects that include or affect heritage assets and historical buildings.
Our team’s experience includes working on listed building applications, applications in conservation areas, impact assessments, quinquennial surveys, specialist fabric repairs and assisting with Heritage Lottery Funding.
At Muse Architects, our heritage services are rooted in a deep respect for historic buildings and their cultural significance. We specialise in the sensitive restoration, refurbishment, and adaptation of listed buildings and heritage assets, ensuring their character is preserved while meeting modern standards of use, safety, and performance.
Our experience includes heritage assessments, conservation-led design, planning and listed building consent support, and coordination with conservation officers and specialist consultants. Working across residential and commercial heritage projects, we deliver thoughtful, well-researched solutions that balance historical integrity with contemporary functionality, helping historic buildings continue to thrive for future generations.
