The implementation of the project of reinforcement and restoration managed to preserve the monument’s authenticity, limiting the impact of interventions to the minimum. Episkopi is bestowed upon the Sikinians as a material expression of their diachronic identity, as well as a valuable resource for the sustainable development of the island.

The building once hosting the Unitarian episcopal residence is one of the most significant townhouses preserving Gothic details in Cluj-Napoca, which was enlarged and transformed several times throughout the centuries. The almost decade-long period of conservation indicates the complexity of the process, the intricacy of the arising professional challenges, and the difficulties related to financing. In 2018, a new public building, the House of Religious Freedom was opened in Cluj-Napoca. Besides displaying its own architectural values, the House promotes and disseminates the material and spiritual heritage of the Unitarian Church, and ensures an attractive location for diverse cultural and public events.

The Glucksman team has developed digital programmes and carried out large-scale projects on-site in the gallery spaces, as well as off-site in public spaces.
