Our team provides specialist cultural heritage conservation and management advice to a wide range of clients and industries. We believe in building a more sustainable future through the inter-generational transmission of heritage places, knowledge and values.
We do this through our professional practice as well as a range of pro bono and subsidised community projects aimed at sharing our knowledge and expertise with community groups, including Indigenous communities, that might not otherwise be able to access specialist heritage advice.
Team members have worked throughout Australia and overseas in the Pacific region, Asia and Africa. While our breadth and depth of experience allows us to tailor our services to complex projects, we’re small enough to provide a personal touch to all our clients.
We bring our evidence-based approach and expertise in all aspects of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and historical archaeology, cultural mapping and cultural heritage management to your project crafting an approach that will deliver you positive heritage outcomes.
Our team has an outstanding record of completing projects on time and within budget. This is reflected in the large number of projects we have successfully completed for our clients and the number of return clients who commission us to deliver increasingly more complex and challenging projects.
