About

Butler Hegarty Architects is an award-winning practice with over thirty years' experience as conservation architects, historic buildings consultants, and designers. Their mission centers on the understanding, preservation, and revitalization of historic buildings and places, emphasizing the importance of existing structures as a precious resource. The firm's approach integrates traditional materials and craft techniques to develop sustainable solutions that respect and enhance the historical integrity of each project.

The firm's portfolio encompasses a diverse range of projects, from high-status listed buildings to more modest everyday environments. Notable projects include The Master's House for Herefordshire Council, Turner's House for Turner's House Trust, and Stoke Newington Church Street for a private client. Each project demonstrates their commitment to meticulous research, sensitive design, and collaborative engagement with clients and stakeholders to ensure that the unique character and historical significance of each building are preserved and celebrated.

Conservation and reuse are at the heart of Butler Hegarty Architects' practice. With specialist knowledge in the conservation and repair of both everyday and listed historic buildings, they bring over twenty years of experience to their projects. Their expertise allows them to navigate the complexities of heritage conservation, ensuring that each intervention is both appropriate and effective in maintaining the building's historical value while adapting it for contemporary use.

The concept of craft is integral to all aspects of their work. Butler Hegarty Architects value the physical crafts of drawing, making, and modelling as essential tools for communicating and exploring ideas. This hands-on approach fosters a deep understanding of materials and construction techniques, enabling them to develop innovative solutions that are rooted in tradition yet responsive to modern needs.

Sustainability is a core principle guiding their projects. Recognizing that existing buildings are a precious resource, Butler Hegarty Architects seek thoughtful ways to adapt and revitalize structures for changing uses, improved energy efficiency, and clients' needs. Their approach balances respect for historical significance with the imperatives of environmental responsibility, ensuring that heritage buildings continue to serve and inspire future generations.
