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. This title presents selected articles from the IntAR Interventions and Adaptive Reuse Journal of the last ten years to explore the social issues of the recent decade.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.The included 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.
ISBN 9783035618280. Birkhauser Verlag. hb. 304 pages. 250 colour ills. 28 x 21.5 cm.
