About Us
At NBRS we strive to shape social culture through life‐changing environments. As a multi‐disciplinary design practice, NBRS works as an integrated team with expertise in Architecture, Landscape Architecture, Heritage, and Interior Design. We operate through three studio locations in Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane.
The NBRS Heritage team is a mix of heritage architects, consultants and historians who provide the full range of specialist heritage consulting services. Established over 50 years ago, we have extensive experience working with sites of Commonwealth, State and local significance at all scales – from small cottages to city buildings and complex sites.
