Reconsider, Reconfigure, Reimagine: A Sustainable Lesson from Adaptive Reuse
Architecture Bulletin | V76, Iss.03, pp.28-29
Responding to the Bulletin’s theme of Climate Crisis, this article posits that architects must fundamentally rethink how cycles of demolition and construction operate within the build environment. It argues that it is far too easy to continually demolish and build anew and that adaptive reuse enables us to shift our thinking into a more sustainable and sensitive approach to our urban fabric.
