Within the Second City Wall: A Historic Restoration

Timber-framed houses are an architectural treasure that tells the story of craftsmanship through centuries. The restoration of this 17th-century building aimed to preserve its authenticity while enhancing its structural integrity. Toni Hamler’s specialized techniques in decorative restoration and gilding ensured that every detail, from the ornamental finishes to the façade, remained true to its original era.

The Restoration Process

Bringing such a historical piece back to life required a balance of traditional artistry and modern preservation techniques. The intricate façade details were carefully restored, while aged materials were reinforced for longevity. The result is a stunning tribute to the past, seamlessly integrated into the present.

“Restoring history is about preserving its soul, not just its walls.” – Toni Hamler
