We specialize in the conservation of mural paintings, stone, stucco and built heritage. Our experience Our project experience includes work in galleries, World Heritage and National Heritage listed sites, private community engagement projects and within heritage advocacy. Trained in Australia and Europe, we formulate treatment methodologies unique to each project by utilising a mixture of traditional and contemporary materials, techniques and analyses to ensure a high-quality outcome. Our aim While we maintain a strong treatment skillset, we aim to minimise interventive practices on heritage materials and to preserve as much of their age and character as possible. Ethics and memberships We abide strictly with the Australian Burra Charter and the Australian Institute for the Conservation of Cultural Materials (AICCM) Code of Ethics & Practice. We are members of Australia ICOMOS, AICCM and the International Institute of Conservation (IIC). Community practices Working with local communities across Australia, India, Italy and Switzerland has instilled in us a strong will to collaborate with and to understand the holistic tangible and intangible aspects of heritage. We believe that conservation is about collaboration, and that developing strategies for sharing and maintaining our heritage is integral to its preservation.
