Architectural Resources Group : ウィキペディア英語版 | Architectural Resources Group Architectural Resources Group (or ARG; also known as Architects, Planners & Conservators, Inc.) is a firm founded in 1980 by Bruce Judd and Steve Farneth in San Francisco. It began by providing professional services in the fields of architecture and urban planning with particular expertise in the area of historic preservation. By 2005, the firm had expanded to a full-service architecture firm with 50 employees, opened an office in Pasadena serving Southern California, and founded a separate conservation-contracting division, ARG Conservation Services. ==About the firm== Because of the complex range of issues common to preservation projects, the firm associates with consultants in diverse fields such as architectural history, preservation technology, building pathology, building materials, engineering, real estate, and economics. By assembling a team of specialists across several different disciplines, ARG approaches problems from a wide perspective, enabling implementation of more creative, cost effective, and comprehensive solutions. ARG was among the first architecture firms in the United States to include architectural conservators as staff members. This resource allows the firm to focus on the science of preserving architecture and its historic fabric. Close integration of architectural conservators, preservation architects, and architectural historians is claimed to provide clients with superior design services, providing truly sustainable solutions to built heritage.〔 Farneth, Stephen J. and Wessel, David P., “The Roles of an Architectural Conservator in an Architectural Preservation Firm,” Standards for Preservation and Rehabilitation, edited by Stephen J. Kelley, published by ASTM 1996〕 ARG has since provided a range of services for various National Historic Landmarks, buildings listed on the National Historic Register, historic districts, and other culturally significant sites. The firm and its projects have received over 100 awards in design excellence, conservation, and planning, including those sponsored by the National Trust for Historic Preservation, the American Institute of Architects, the California Governor’s Office, and the California Preservation Foundation. In 2006, ARG received the Firm of the Year Award from the AIA California Council. The firm also retains close alliances and involvement with preservation policy and advocacy organizations, such as the National Trust for Historic Preservation, ICOMOS, DOCOMOMO, the Association for Preservation Technology International, and the American Institute for Conservation of Historic and Artistic Works. Firm members have also given numerous public lectures, discussing a wide range of topics pertaining to cultural heritage.
