Living Buildings celebrates the 50th anniversary of Donald Insall Associates, the firm led by esteemed British architect Donald Insall, a leading exponent in the field of architectural conservation. Probably best known for his restoration of Windsor Castle after a devastating fire in 1992, Insall's dedication to preservation architecture has ensured the longevity of many of Britain's national treasures. These include stately homes, town halls, churches, entire city precincts, hospitals, royal palaces, castles, public buildings and public spaces. This book is a detailed examination of Insall's painstaking approach to architectural conservation, comprehensively illustrated by case studies, drawings, plans and in-depth descriptions. Insall & Associates is also involved in new design in sensitive or conservation areas, and with the design of new monuments and statuary, examples of which also appear in the book.
