Building Envelope Conservation

Building Envelope Conservation is the systematic preservation and restoration of the external physical components of an industrial heritage structure—such as walls, roofs, windows, and cladding—that collectively regulate environmental interaction and maintain the building’s historical integrity, distinguishing it from broader conservation practices by focusing specifically on the interface between interior and exterior environments.
