Stephen is a Heritage Conservation architect who for the
greater part of his 39-year professional career has worked on a wide variety of
building types and styles from humble cottages to retail and hospitality
developments, from modern buildings to some dating back to the 11th century.
His company, Carste STUDIO, specialises in heritage buildings and places. It
deals with heritage assessments, heritage impact statements, conservation
management plans and the provision of conservation advice. He will be speaking
to the Maitland & District Historical Society about the considerable
heritage that is embodied in the buildings of Maitland.
Stephen provides heritage advice to councils, lives in a
heritage house and has been involved in many heritage-related projects in and
around Maitland and Morpeth. These have included the Archaeological Management
Plan for the Maitland CBD and conservation works on a number of the prominent
churches and commercial buildings in Maitland.The talk is open to members of the public who are most welcome to attend. The Society asks for a gold-coin donation to cover the costs of refreshments.
