Following the disastrous fire at Windsor Castle, the Practice were commissioned as Co-ordinating Architects for the main phases of Reconstruction and Restoration. Work included re-creation of the magnificent architectural interiors in the destroyed principal State Rooms and the replanning and rebuilding of many areas of associated staff and service accommodation. With the works completed on time and within budget, the Castle was restored to royal use exactly five years from the date of the fire, since which time it has received an increasing number of visitors.
