RIBA Conservation accredited architect Matthew Morrish has been appointed as the first ever heritage architect at HLM Architects

Morrish has more than 20 years’ experience working on the Regency-era Brighton Dome and Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian-era buildings. He also has knowledge of working with new and historic buildings in sensitive contexts.

As a RIBA Conservation accredited architect, Matthew Morrish will utilise his design and construction knowledge to lead consultant and client project teams through the RIBA work stages. He will be on hand to provide any advice and support that his clients may need on the careful repair and re-use of existing structures.

‘Protect, preserve and revitalise’

Director at HLM Architects Philip Watson has said:

“In recent years we have seen an increase in our clients’ desires to protect, preserve and revitalise their historic assets.

“Together with the growing awareness of the retrofit agenda, Matthew’s appointment fits perfectly with our environmental and sustainability ambitions and presents the perfect opportunity to augment our team in this increasingly specialised sector.”

The man himself – Matthew Morrish – added:

“I’m excited to be joining HLM at what is both a pivotal point for the practice and the construction industry.

“With an increasing amount of pressure on creating a net-zero built environment, the adaptative re-use and repair of existing buildings within sensitive and historic architectural settings is becoming increasingly important.

“I look forward to working with clients to deliver their visions for projects within a practice that is committed to creating a more sustainable built environment.”
