Recently, our Consultant Architectural Historian Nico Jackson had a chat with our Architectural Historian, Dr. Helen Lawrence-Beaton, about her academic journey, expertise in early 18th-century architecture, the value of historical research in architecture, and her passion for both classical architecture and abstract art.
