We don’t impose on old buildings. We work with them. At Peak, we design within historic environments, conservation areas and listed buildings with care and respect. We focus on understanding what’s already there, the materials, spaces and stories, and build from that insight.

Sensitive, informed interventions

Where change is needed, we design it to be reversible and discreet. New elements are carefully placed, often as freestanding structures, allowing flexibility for future generations.

Our studio is based in a Grade II listed building, so we understand the realities first-hand. We have strong relationships with conservation officers, Historic England and estates, and a proven record of securing planning and listed building consent.
