Giles Quarme Architects

Giles Quarme & Associates is a London-based architectural practice that specialises in all aspects of work relating to historic buildings: surveying and historical research; repair, restoration and alteration of the buildings themselves; and design of new buildings within Conservation Areas, and Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Our approach to... architecture in general and historic buildings in particular, is holistic as we allow priorities and issues to interact rather than to dominate and dictate what can be done to a building to improve its future well being. The particular strengths of Giles Quarme & Associates lies in the members various fields of expertise (please refer to CVs), together with its knowledge and experience of working on classical buildings both nationally and internationally. The practice consists of a dedicated team of seven architects and professionals, with a wide experience of historic buildings both in England and abroad and familiar with building and conservation issues, CAD and project management. In addition to performing the normal architectural services, GQA provides specialist consultancy advice on Listed Building legislation, Conservation Area and World Heritage Sites. GQA is not only consulted by individuals, organisations, charities and various societies, but also by other architects on conservation issues. We acted as the historic building adviser to Sir Norman Foster on his British Museum Great Court Project.Read More
