Aim Design were delighted to receive a Dundee Heritage & Environmental Trust Conservation Award at the Dundee Civic Trust Awards ceremony last night for our project, Walker the Jeweller, located in Dundee’s historic Union Street.

Some lovely words about the project from the Dundee Civic Trust Awards judges:

“The judges felt this conservation project exhibited an exceptional quality of finishes, indicating a deep understanding of the materials and existing detailing. There is very fine timber and metalwork detailing and careful repair work and lighting really shows off the interior. The work to the cornice and pilaster plasterwork is excellent and demonstrates that a careful repair (still thoughtfully showing the signs of aging, for instance, in the capitol of the pilasters and slight variations in the near perfect lines of the cornice) reveals both the patina of the historic and the care of the skilled craftsman. An air source heat pump is discreetly accommodated with other services behind careful services detailing. Lighting is optimized for purpose. The use of the building for a high end business and the significant investment in the building shows confidence in the city centre as a location for such businesses into the future and that has to be good for the sustainability of the historic environment.”

Congratulations to our client Walker Luxury Jeweller and contractor Bentleys - Interior Fit Out Specialists and the rest of the project team, Narro
