June 2022:
We are very excited to be appointed for Restoration and Reordering Project for St Peter Cornhill, City of London.
The present church was built in 1677-84 and is among the finest and most intact examples of the celebrated group of churches designed by Sir Christopher Wren.
Central to the project is the proposal to sensitively restore and reinstate much of the original character of Wren’s design.
This would be our second project for Wren's Church following our ongoing restoration project for St Bride's, Fleet Street.
April 2022:
We are developing an exciting reordering project for St Andrew, Enfield.
St Andrew's Church is a culturally, historically and spiritually significant building located in the centre of Enfield Town. The surrounding town has developed around the church over the course of many generations, with Enfield Market and the main shopping areas located directly to the south, and Enfield Grammar School to the west. The building remains a focal point for the town centre and for the surrounding community.
The aim of the project is to restore the church building along with adaptation to create suitable spaces where the local community activities engage with the heritage of St Andrew's.
February 2022:
We are pleased to announce that ARTArchitects won a planning approval for St Mary's Church, Hendon.
This re-roofing project initiate a series of further restoration projects for the Grade II* listed church. It is assumed that the vestry/sacristy originally had a traditional lead roofing which was stolen a decade ago. The project aims to restore original appearance of traditional lead roof with more robust tern-coated stainless steel.
