Heritage services · Brisbane & Queensland
We provide heritage and design advice from early project planning through to approvals, documentation and works. Based in Brisbane, we work across Queensland and Northern New South Wales with a practical focus: understand the place, identify what matters and help the project respond with confidence.
Evidence-based Heritage Impact Statements and assessments for proposed work to heritage places, sites within heritage overlays and development affecting heritage settings. We explain significance, assess likely impacts and clearly document the design response for planning and approval processes in Brisbane and across Queensland.

Assessment and design advice for development within traditional building character areas and character precincts, including Brisbane projects. We help projects respond to established streetscape, scale, form and pattern while accommodating contemporary requirements.
Conservation Management Plans that bring together a place's history, fabric, significance and conservation needs into a clear framework for future decisions, maintenance, adaptation and change. Learn more about Conservation Management Plans →
Early and ongoing advice to owners, architects and consultant teams so heritage considerations inform the design rather than being addressed at the end. We review options, identify constraints and opportunities, and help shape heritage-sensitive responses.
Digital capture of buildings, fabric and site conditions using contemporary recording techniques. These tools can support analysis, measured documentation, condition records and a more complete understanding of complex existing places.
Historical research and assessment to establish a clear understanding of a place, its development and its heritage significance. We use documentary research, site observation and analysis of fabric and context to inform heritage advice, conservation planning and development decisions.
Common questions
A Heritage Impact Statement is commonly requested where proposed work affects a heritage-listed place, a place within a heritage overlay, or the setting of a heritage place. The exact requirement depends on the relevant planning scheme, approval pathway and scope of work. Read more about our Heritage Impact Statement service.
Yes. Early heritage advice can help identify significant fabric, likely approval issues and opportunities before the design is fixed, which can make later assessment and documentation more straightforward.
We are based in Brisbane and work across Queensland and Northern New South Wales, including local and State heritage places, character areas, institutional sites and residential projects.
