Art, Culture and Public Buildings
The wide range of specialist engineering disciplines which Gifford can provide is particularly relevant to this sector of work, involving as it often does the restoration, adaptation and/or conversion of significant historic buildings.
The successful engagement of our expertise, from archaeological assessments, conservation engineering, structural and environmental design can be demonstrated by reference to numerous completed and current commissions, many of them award winning.
Each project has its own special character but in essence the challenge is to develop modern and efficient engineering solutions which are functional and cost-effective while being sensitive to the heritage imbued in the often ancient building fabric.
Where purely new buildings are concerned our multi-disciplinary services are no less relevant but historical context and conservation are replaced by consideration of civic pride, culture, and a responsibility to send positive messages on green issues and sustainability.
