Museu Marítim, Barcelona
Museu Picasso, Barcelona

It is always good to get away, a recent trip to Barcelona showed as always there is a surprise around nearly every corner.  Both the Picasso Gallery and the Maritime Museum show the most amazing and sensitive re-use of historic structures, with the use of contemporary materials set alongside traditional stonework and plasters so that the original buildings can be easily be understood, appreciated and enjoyed.

I have been helping to restore historic buildings and sites for over 25 years. I have worked in the public, private and charitable sectors. I have found that restoring old buildings is as much about understanding the Client's aspirations and managing their project team and workforce, as it is understanding and perserving the history, character and and qualities of the building or site.
