Louise Goodison

Louise is an architect and historian, an expert in the heritage and history of the built environment, and a leading client advisor. Louise’s approach to development and regeneration is to reveal and reflect the context and patterned narratives of an environment from the micro level to the holistic larger vision. As a conservation architect and heritage specialist, Louise has project-led programmes of repair and regeneration from Cornwall to Salford and Hackney and other London Boroughs. She interrogates permeability, granularity, and community narrative to reflect a unique sense of place and locality.

Louise has been director of Cazenove Architects, a practice specializing in community-led programmes from early years education, housing, mixed-use, and social projects. She has led programmes in education focusing on Sure Start and children centres, primary schools, sixth form, and adult education under the BSF programme and mixed-use developments. Louise is on the Panel of the London and Chelmsford Diocese, working with churches and their communities to restore the civic and community role of these focal buildings. Louise is chair of the Hackney design panel and has chaired and been a panel member of panels throughout London and the SE. She has been a member of the High Street Task Force.
