In this episode, House & Garden’s Pratyush Sarup is joined by Dan Jackson, Head of Historic Buildings for Historic Royal Palaces alongside Julie Montagu, Countess of Sandwich and Custodian of Mapperton House, and Malcolm Winyard, Interior Designer who worked on Mapperton House.
Together they discuss how historic houses are conserved, refreshed and reimagined through skilled craft, from upholstery, joinery and specialist finishes to textile conservation and restoration. They explore how owners, designers and makers decide what to preserve, what to revive and what to reinterpret, and what it takes to keep a great house alive without freezing it in time.
