Abstract

It is clear that working with historic structures is both more environmentally sustainable and cost effective than new architecture and construction-and many believe that the best design occurs at the intersection of old and new. Françoise Astorg Bollack presents 28 examples gathered in the United States and throughout Europe and the Middle East. Some are well known-Mass MOCA, Market Santa Caterina in Barcelona, Neues Museum in Berlin-and others are almost anonymous. But all demonstrate a unique and appropriate solution to the problem of adapting historic structures to contemporary uses. This survey of contemporary additions to older buildings is an essential addition to the architectural literature. "I have always loved old buildings. An old building is not an obstacle but instead a foundation for continued action. Designing with them is an exhilarating enterprise; adding to them, grafting, inserting, knitting new pieces into the existing built fabric is endlessly stimulating.

Abstract

Lost, forgotten, reimagined, and transformed: the compelling beauty of abandoned, reinvented, and rescued architecture. This book captures the awe-inspiring drama of abandoned, forgotten, and ruined spaces, as well as the extraordinary designs that can bring them back to life - demonstrating that reimagined, repurposed, and abandoned architecture has the beauty and power to change lives, communities, and cities the world over. The scale and diversity of abandoned buildings is shown through examples from all around the world, demonstrating the extraordinary ingenuity of their transformation by some of the greatest architectural designers of the 20th and 21st centuries.

Abstract

Adaptive reuse is a design practice where changes in the building structure go along with new programs and functions. Many concerns of the day that are the hallmark of current social discourse can equally be communicated through the vocabulary of design and reuse. Six common themes mirroring those of society in the new millennium are discernable in the current adaptive reuse practice: appropriation, ecology, equity, memory & redemption, identity and authenticity. Selected articles from the IntAR Interventions and Adaptive Reuse Journal of the last ten years speak to the social issues of the recent decade. The introductory essay positions shifting norms of working from home or remote learning in the light of their revision through adaptive reuse, for example the post-pandemic repercussions on office towers and the classroom.

Abstract

Bauen im Bestand erfordert mehr als praktische Lösungen und Sicherheit in Stilfragen. Wenn bei der Umnutzung von Bauten die neuen Programme und Funktionen mit Veränderungen verbunden sind, stellt sich die fundamentale Frage, mit welchen Mitteln die Vergangenheit in den Entwurf für die Zukunft integriert werden soll. Auf dem Hintergrund langjähriger Lehrerfahrung gibt dieses Buch eine umfassende Einführung ins architektonische Entwerfen von Umbau-/Umnutzungsprojekten. Es zieht Bildwelten von Frankenstein bis Rem Koolhaas zur Verdeutlichung heran, behandelt Geschichte und Theorie, Bautypologie, Material- und Konstruktionsfragen sowie Aspekte von Denkmalschutz, Urbanistik und Innenarchitektur und stellt so das Bauen im Bestand als ein eigenständiges Gebiet des architektonischen Arbeitens dar. Building in existing fabric requires more than practical solutions and stylistic skills. The adaptive reuse of buildings, where changes in the structure go along with new programs and functions, poses the fundamental question of how the past should be included in the design for the future. On the background of long years of teaching and publishing, and using vivid imagery from Frankenstein to Rem Koolhaas and beyond, the author provides a comprehensive introduction to architectural design for adaptive reuse projects. History and theory, building typology, questions of materials and construction, aspects of preservation, urban as well as interior design are dealt with in ways that allow to approach adaptive reuse as a design practice field of its own right.

Abstract

While building with reused components has become one of the most widely noted phenomena in the European architectural discourse in recent years, it is only slowly finding its way into the everyday practice of architects. Whenever components that can last for decades are not destroyed but reused for new buildings, this not only saves resources. It also drastically reduces energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions during the construction phase. Circular construction brings with it a whole range of questions, howeverranging from technical and energy-related to legal ones. This applies even more so today, although the practice itself can look back on a long tradition across history. This book is a comprehensive compendium on the topic of reuse in construction that, in addition to the theoretical discourse, also looks at the various practical questions by using a concrete example: the head-end building K.118 on the Sulzer Areal in Winterthur, which is the largest building in Switzerland built primarily with reused components to date. Since 2018, an interdisciplinary research project has evaluated this pilot project with regard to the architectural-constructive, energy-related, economic, procedural and legal aspects involved in its construction. The texts and graphic materials collected in this book present the findings of this study in a highly informative and visually striking way.
