As a field of practice, historic preservation addresses the role of time in shaping the value and meaning of our inherited buildings and sites. As a mode of inquiry, it uniquely facilitates the thoughtful management of change in the built environment. At BBB, we believe, no matter the scale or mode of intervention, that historic preservation is innately an imaginative act—a question of “what could be?”—that is inseparable from transformative design.
