Heritage Alliance provides heritage services in the areas of historic built fabric, cultural landscape and heritage planning: We undertake heritage surveys for local and state governments including area, thematic and typological surveys; works documentation for architectural works to heritage structures; heritage and planning advice to local government, private owners and asset managers; archival recording and documentation using photography and 3D scanning; heritage assessments and expert evidence at tribunals and panel hearings. We provide architectural, photographic, historical and planning expertise to a wide range of clients.  Professional work has been carried out in Tasmania, Queensland and Victoria. 

Recent projects have included heritage studies of the Regional City of Cairns, and the Mornington Peninsula Shire along with a study of munition sites in City of Maribyrnong, “half houses” in the City of Brimbank, multiple cemeteries for the Greater Metropolitan Cemeteries Trust plus works documentation to State Heritage places such as Glass Terraces, Footscray Town Hall portico and Bendigo’s Cemetery Chapel.  Advice on the repair of heritage places has also been given to a number of organisations or institutions which own some of Melbourne’s earliest buildings (bluestone houses, early shops and hotels), along with modernist places (former ANZ Malvern, ABC Ripponlea).

​Loop Architecture is sympathetic to the increasing need for both conservation and built heritage in addition to environmentally sustainable and energy efficient architecture. Through careful design, inspired by site, sense of place, client expectations and relevant cultural issues, we have the ability to successfully integrate all facets of building conservation, adaptive re-use and procurement processes. We also harbour a comprehensive knowledge of all aspects of construction, both period and contemporary, and acknowledge responsibility to identify and rationalise the on-going maintenance and energy management of all projects.
