Conservation Accreditation
studioEAST carries extensive experience in working on listed and traditional buildings. Previous projects have included a range of works included repair, renovation, conversion and extension to heritage assets including in conservation areas.
If required, we can draw on the experience of our consultant Conservation Accredited Architect who carries The Royal Incorporation of Architects Accreditation in Building Conservation.
This qualification proves a level of skill, competence and experience to both clients and funding providers, enabling us to work on Listed Buildings, in Conservation Areas and Scheduled Monuments where this qualification is required.
A good knowledge of best practice and advisory standards of repair allows a smooth passage through Planning & Listed Building consents as well as funding opportunities and adding value to a property.
Software & Technology
We use the most up to date industry standard software available. This is updated regularly and includes Autodesk AutoCAD (2D drafting), Autodesk REVIT (BIM & 3D modelling), Photoshop & Sketchup (3D modelling & Rendering). Our in-house project management software allows for effective and efficient administration of the project workflow.
