Tags: There is now widespread acceptance that it is not only possible, but also highly desirable, to integrate the best of contemporary design within our places of historic interest. This book celebrates the pioneering work of both the architects and communities who have played a vital role in safeguarding the buildings they value. Sometimes preservation involves last-chance rescues, high profile campaigns, and heroic efforts to enlist support. But just as important are the bringing together of different talents and contributions, enlisting the local community, talented architects, the statutory authorities and grantaiding bodies, all working together collaboratively. The numerous case studies in this book show how such collaborations come about, and the benefits that follow. Exploring exemplar projects across the UK, this book demonstrates what can be achieved through the creative use of heritage architecture, and provides an inspirational and informative guide for architects, designers, developers, students and community groups.
