The Relationship between Historic Preservation and Sustainability in Interior Design
The thesis of this chapter – that sustainable preservation is the realm of the interior designer – challenges the current view of historic preservation in the US that is predominantly in the domain of architecture. The chapter suggests that the essence of a historic interior is like a palimpsest – or multi‐layered record. It proposes a new framework for dealing with the specific issues associated with the history of interiors in a building. This framework for sustainable historic interiors proposes a more expansive conversation – one that includes the European sensibility of conservation, that is, conservation as defined by English Heritage as “the careful management of change”. To understand how a palimpsest framework can be applied to a historic interior it is important to first have a clear understanding of how a historic interior is evaluated for significance.
