Description

Heritage conservation is more than old buildings. Heritage values underpin the development of a community, and an understanding of how they have been, and are continuing to be, expressed in the urban fabric is critical to the management of the built environment today. This course will provide an introduction to the theory, principles and practice of the conservation of the urban landscape. It will use a combination of lectures, case studies and studio projects to explore the opportunities, issues and dilemmas facing culturally significant items, sites and areas.
