ADAPTIVE REUSE - a process that changes a disused or ineffective

item into a new item that can be used for a different purpose

Sometimes nothing changes but the itemrsquos use

ADAPTIVE RESUE

ADAPTIVE REUSE - BUILDINGS

Old buildings often outlive their original

purpose

Adaptive reuse or re-use is a process that

adapts buildings for new uses while retaining

their historic features

Eg - An old factory may become an apartment

building

ADAPTIVE RESUE

Adapting old structures for purposes other than those

initially intended

When original use of a structure changes

Or

No longer required as with older buildings from

industrial revolution

Architects have opportunity to change primary function

of structure while retaining some existing architectural

details that make the building unique

ADAPTIVE RESUE

amount of urban sprawl

physically suitable for adaptation to most uses

Influenced the proposition - lsquoLONG LIFE ndash LOOSE FITrsquo

This longer view of use potential has recently seen a

revival under the sustainability agenda

David Kincaid

The research supporting Kincaidrsquos book also

confirms this idea of general utility of buildings

Encourages adaptation as a serious alternative to

demolition and new build

But

Does not help to determine which new use is

best suited to a particular building in a particular

location at a particular time

Where a building can no longer function with its original use a

new use through adaptation may be the only way to preserve its

heritage significance

Adaptive reuse of heritage building Australia

development

When it involves historic buildings environmental

benefits more significant

Keeping and reusing historic buildings - long-term benefits for

communities that value them

Adaptive reuse can restore and maintain heritage significance of

a building and help to ensure its survival

Rather than

Falling into disrepair through neglect or being rendered

unrecognisable

Heritage buildings that are sympathetically recycled can continue to

be used

Reuse of heritage buildings makes good sense

ADAPTIVE RESUE

Social

Increasingly communities governments and developers are seeking ways

to reduce the environmental social and economic costs of

continued urban development and expansion

Realisation - Quality and design of built environment vital to our standard of

living and our impact upon natural resources

Lifestyle enhancement through retention of heritage buildings and their

adaptation into accessible and useable places

Reuse of heritage buildings in established residential areas can provide

community with new housing and commercial property opportunities

Reuse of heritage buildings makes good sense

ADAPTIVE RESUE

APPROACH

Adaptive reuse of a historic building should have

minimal impact on its heritage significance and its

setting

Developers should gain understanding of why

building has heritage status and then pursue

development that is sympathetic to the building to

give it a new purpose

Adaptive reuse is self-defeating if it fails to protect

the buildingrsquos heritage values

1992 - Tate Gallery at British National Art Museum proposed competition to build a new building for modern art

1995 - announced that Herzog amp de Meuron had won the competition with their simple design

ADAPTIVE RESUE

Architects decided ndash reinvent current building instead of demolishing

Housed in former railway station

Holds mainly French art dating from 1848 to 1915

The suggestion to turn the station into a museum came from the Directorate of the Museums of France

Idea - to build a museum that would bridge gap between Louvre and National Museum of Modern Art at Pompidou Centre

ACT Architecture awarded contract

Involved creating 20000 sq m of new floor space on 4 floors

In 1981 the Italian architect Gae Aulenti chosen to design interior including the internal arrangement decoration furniture and fittings of the museum

BUILDINGS

ADAPTIVE REUSE - a process that changes a disused or ineffective

item into a new item that can be used for a different purpose

Sometimes nothing changes but the itemrsquos use

ADAPTIVE RESUE

ADAPTIVE REUSE - BUILDINGS

Old buildings often outlive their original

purpose

Adaptive reuse or re-use is a process that

adapts buildings for new uses while retaining

their historic features

Eg - An old factory may become an apartment

building

ADAPTIVE RESUE

Adapting old structures for purposes other than those

initially intended

When original use of a structure changes

Or

No longer required as with older buildings from

industrial revolution

Architects have opportunity to change primary function

of structure while retaining some existing architectural

details that make the building unique

bullhttpenwikipediaorgwikiFileMalthouse_richmondjpg

ADAPTIVE RESUE

In local communities unused schools or Post Office

buildings been adapted for reuse as retail stores or

offices

Seen as key factor in land conservation and reducing the

amount of urban sprawl

For the concept of smart growth - more efficient and

environmentally responsible to redevelop older

buildings closer to urban cores than to build new

constructionsbullhttpenwikipediaorgwikiFileMalthouse_richmondjpg

ADAPTIVE RESUE

Adaptive Reuse category ndash Ordsall Hall

Museum by Lloyd Evans Prichard

Peter Cowenrsquos study- suggests that most buildings

physically suitable for adaptation to most uses

Influenced the proposition - lsquoLONG LIFE ndash LOOSE FITrsquo

David Kincaid - should be a guiding principle behind most

design briefs

This longer view of use potential has recently seen a

revival under the sustainability agenda

David Kincaid

The research supporting Kincaidrsquos book also

confirms this idea of general utility of buildings

Encourages adaptation as a serious alternative to

demolition and new build

But

Does not help to determine which new use is

best suited to a particular building in a particular

location at a particular time

ADAPTIVE RESUE

Most successful built heritage adaptive reuse projects -- that

best respect and retain buildingrsquos heritage

significancehelliphellipAND

Add a contemporary layer that provides future value

Sometimes adaptive reuse only way that buildingrsquos fabric will

be properly cared for revealed or interpretedhelliphellipWHILE

Making better use of the building itself

ADAPTIVE RESUE

Where a building can no longer function with its original use a

new use through adaptation may be the only way to preserve its

heritage significance

Adaptive reuse of heritage building Australia

Benefits Of Adaptive Reuse in Heritage Buildings ndash the Australian Example

Adaptive reuse of buildings - major role in sustainable

development

When it involves historic buildings environmental

benefits more significant

Historic buildings offer so much to the landscape

Environmental

Benefits Of Adaptive Reuse in Heritage Buildings ndash the Australian Example

````````

One of the main environmental benefits of reusing buildings - retention of

original buildingrsquos ldquoembodied energyrdquo

By reusing buildings their embodied energy retained making the project much

more environmentally sustainable

Than

An entirely new construction

New buildings have much higher embodied energy costs than buildings that are

adaptively reused

Australian Greenhouse Office - reuse of building materials usually

involves a saving of approximately 95 of embodied energy over new

materials

Benefits Of Adaptive Reuse in Heritage Buildings ndash the Australian Example

Environmental

In 2001 new building accounted for about

Social

Keeping and reusing historic buildings - long-term benefits for

communities that value them

Adaptive reuse can restore and maintain heritage significance of

a building and help to ensure its survival

Rather than

Falling into disrepair through neglect or being rendered

unrecognisable

Heritage buildings that are sympathetically recycled can continue to

be used

Reuse of heritage buildings makes good sense

ADAPTIVE RESUE

Social

Increasingly communities governments and developers are seeking ways

to reduce the environmental social and economic costs of

continued urban development and expansion

Realisation - Quality and design of built environment vital to our standard of

living and our impact upon natural resources

Lifestyle enhancement through retention of heritage buildings and their

adaptation into accessible and useable places

Reuse of heritage buildings in established residential areas can provide

community with new housing and commercial property opportunities

Reuse of heritage buildings makes good sense

ADAPTIVE RESUE

APPROACH

Adaptive reuse of a historic building should have

minimal impact on its heritage significance and its

setting

Developers should gain understanding of why

building has heritage status and then pursue

development that is sympathetic to the building to

give it a new purpose

Adaptive reuse is self-defeating if it fails to protect

the buildingrsquos heritage values

ADAPTIVE REUSE - BUILDINGS

Old buildings often outlive their original

purpose

Adaptive reuse or re-use is a process that

adapts buildings for new uses while retaining

their historic features

Eg - An old factory may become an apartment

building

ADAPTIVE RESUE

Adapting old structures for purposes other than those

initially intended

When original use of a structure changes

Or

No longer required as with older buildings from

industrial revolution

Architects have opportunity to change primary function

of structure while retaining some existing architectural

details that make the building unique

bullhttpenwikipediaorgwikiFileMalthouse_richmondjpg

ADAPTIVE RESUE

In local communities unused schools or Post Office

buildings been adapted for reuse as retail stores or

offices

Seen as key factor in land conservation and reducing the

amount of urban sprawl

For the concept of smart growth - more efficient and

environmentally responsible to redevelop older

buildings closer to urban cores than to build new

constructionsbullhttpenwikipediaorgwikiFileMalthouse_richmondjpg

ADAPTIVE RESUE

Adaptive Reuse category ndash Ordsall Hall

Museum by Lloyd Evans Prichard

Peter Cowenrsquos study- suggests that most buildings

physically suitable for adaptation to most uses

Influenced the proposition - lsquoLONG LIFE ndash LOOSE FITrsquo

David Kincaid - should be a guiding principle behind most

design briefs

This longer view of use potential has recently seen a

revival under the sustainability agenda

David Kincaid

The research supporting Kincaidrsquos book also

confirms this idea of general utility of buildings

Encourages adaptation as a serious alternative to

demolition and new build

But

Does not help to determine which new use is

best suited to a particular building in a particular

location at a particular time

ADAPTIVE RESUE

Most successful built heritage adaptive reuse projects -- that

best respect and retain buildingrsquos heritage

significancehelliphellipAND

Add a contemporary layer that provides future value

Sometimes adaptive reuse only way that buildingrsquos fabric will

be properly cared for revealed or interpretedhelliphellipWHILE

Making better use of the building itself

ADAPTIVE RESUE

Where a building can no longer function with its original use a

new use through adaptation may be the only way to preserve its

heritage significance

Adaptive reuse of heritage building Australia

Benefits Of Adaptive Reuse in Heritage Buildings ndash the Australian Example

Adaptive reuse of buildings - major role in sustainable

development

When it involves historic buildings environmental

benefits more significant

As

Historic buildings offer so much to the landscape

identity and amenity of the communities they belong to

Environmental

Benefits Of Adaptive Reuse in Heritage Buildings ndash the Australian Example

````````

One of the main environmental benefits of reusing buildings - retention of

original buildingrsquos ldquoembodied energyrdquo

By reusing buildings their embodied energy retained making the project much

more environmentally sustainable

Than

An entirely new construction

New buildings have much higher embodied energy costs than buildings that are

adaptively reused

Australian Greenhouse Office - reuse of building materials usually

involves a saving of approximately 95 of embodied energy over new

materials

Benefits Of Adaptive Reuse in Heritage Buildings ndash the Australian Example

Environmental

In 2001 new building accounted for about

40 of annual energy amp raw materials

consumption

25 of wood harvest

16 of fresh water supplies

44 of landfill

45 of CO2 production and

up to 50 total greenhouse emissions

Social

Keeping and reusing historic buildings - long-term benefits for

communities that value them

Adaptive reuse can restore and maintain heritage significance of

a building and help to ensure its survival

Rather than

Falling into disrepair through neglect or being rendered

unrecognisable

Heritage buildings that are sympathetically recycled can continue to

be used

Reuse of heritage buildings makes good sense

ADAPTIVE RESUE

Social

Increasingly communities governments and developers are seeking ways

to reduce the environmental social and economic costs of

continued urban development and expansion

Realisation - Quality and design of built environment vital to our standard of

living and our impact upon natural resources

Lifestyle enhancement through retention of heritage buildings and their

adaptation into accessible and useable places

Reuse of heritage buildings in established residential areas can provide

community with new housing and commercial property opportunities

Reuse of heritage buildings makes good sense

ADAPTIVE RESUE

APPROACH

Adaptive reuse of a historic building should have

minimal impact on its heritage significance and its

setting

Developers should gain understanding of why

building has heritage status and then pursue

development that is sympathetic to the building to

give it a new purpose

Adaptive reuse is self-defeating if it fails to protect

the buildingrsquos heritage values

Adapting old structures for purposes other than those

initially intended

When original use of a structure changes

of structure while retaining some existing architectural

ADAPTIVE RESUE

Adaptive Reuse category ndash Ordsall Hall

Museum by Lloyd Evans Prichard

Peter Cowenrsquos study- suggests that most buildings

physically suitable for adaptation to most uses

Influenced the proposition - lsquoLONG LIFE ndash LOOSE FITrsquo

David Kincaid - should be a guiding principle behind most

design briefs

This longer view of use potential has recently seen a

revival under the sustainability agenda

David Kincaid

The research supporting Kincaidrsquos book also

confirms this idea of general utility of buildings

Encourages adaptation as a serious alternative to

demolition and new build

But

Does not help to determine which new use is

best suited to a particular building in a particular

location at a particular time

ADAPTIVE RESUE

Most successful built heritage adaptive reuse projects -- that

best respect and retain buildingrsquos heritage

significancehelliphellipAND

Add a contemporary layer that provides future value

Sometimes adaptive reuse only way that buildingrsquos fabric will

be properly cared for revealed or interpretedhelliphellipWHILE

Making better use of the building itself

ADAPTIVE RESUE

Where a building can no longer function with its original use a

new use through adaptation may be the only way to preserve its

heritage significance

Adaptive reuse of heritage building Australia

Benefits Of Adaptive Reuse in Heritage Buildings ndash the Australian Example

Adaptive reuse of buildings - major role in sustainable

development

When it involves historic buildings environmental

benefits more significant

As

Historic buildings offer so much to the landscape

identity and amenity of the communities they belong to

Environmental

Benefits Of Adaptive Reuse in Heritage Buildings ndash the Australian Example

````````

One of the main environmental benefits of reusing buildings - retention of

original buildingrsquos ldquoembodied energyrdquo

By reusing buildings their embodied energy retained making the project much

more environmentally sustainable

Than

An entirely new construction

New buildings have much higher embodied energy costs than buildings that are

adaptively reused

Australian Greenhouse Office - reuse of building materials usually

involves a saving of approximately 95 of embodied energy over new

materials

Benefits Of Adaptive Reuse in Heritage Buildings ndash the Australian Example

Environmental

In 2001 new building accounted for about

40 of annual energy amp raw materials

consumption

25 of wood harvest

16 of fresh water supplies

44 of landfill

45 of CO2 production and

up to 50 total greenhouse emissions

Social

Keeping and reusing historic buildings - long-term benefits for

communities that value them

Adaptive reuse can restore and maintain heritage significance of

a building and help to ensure its survival

Rather than

Falling into disrepair through neglect or being rendered

unrecognisable

Heritage buildings that are sympathetically recycled can continue to

be used

Reuse of heritage buildings makes good sense

ADAPTIVE RESUE

Social

Increasingly communities governments and developers are seeking ways

to reduce the environmental social and economic costs of

continued urban development and expansion

Realisation - Quality and design of built environment vital to our standard of

living and our impact upon natural resources

Lifestyle enhancement through retention of heritage buildings and their

adaptation into accessible and useable places

Reuse of heritage buildings in established residential areas can provide

community with new housing and commercial property opportunities

Reuse of heritage buildings makes good sense

ADAPTIVE RESUE

APPROACH

Adaptive reuse of a historic building should have

minimal impact on its heritage significance and its

setting

Developers should gain understanding of why

building has heritage status and then pursue

development that is sympathetic to the building to

give it a new purpose

Adaptive reuse is self-defeating if it fails to protect

the buildingrsquos heritage values

David Kincaid

The research supporting Kincaidrsquos book also

confirms this idea of general utility of buildings

Encourages adaptation as a serious alternative to

demolition and new build

But

Does not help to determine which new use is

best suited to a particular building in a particular

location at a particular time

ADAPTIVE RESUE

Most successful built heritage adaptive reuse projects -- that

best respect and retain buildingrsquos heritage

significancehelliphellipAND

Add a contemporary layer that provides future value

Sometimes adaptive reuse only way that buildingrsquos fabric will

be properly cared for revealed or interpretedhelliphellipWHILE

Making better use of the building itself

ADAPTIVE RESUE

Where a building can no longer function with its original use a

new use through adaptation may be the only way to preserve its

heritage significance

Adaptive reuse of heritage building Australia

Benefits Of Adaptive Reuse in Heritage Buildings ndash the Australian Example

Adaptive reuse of buildings - major role in sustainable

development

When it involves historic buildings environmental

benefits more significant

Keeping and reusing historic buildings - long-term benefits for

Adaptive reuse can restore and maintain heritage significance of

Heritage buildings that are sympathetically recycled can continue to

be used

Reuse of heritage buildings makes good sense

Realisation - Quality and design of built environment vital to our standard of

APPROACH

Adaptive reuse of a historic building should have

Adaptive reuse of heritage building Australia

Benefits Of Adaptive Reuse in Heritage Buildings ndash the Australian Example

Adaptive reuse of buildings - major role in sustainable

development

When it involves historic buildings environmental

benefits more significant

As

Historic buildings offer so much to the landscape

identity and amenity of the communities they belong to

Adaptive Reuse Preserving Our Past Building Our Future Royal Institute of Australian Architects

Commonwealth of Australia 2004

Environmental

Benefits Of Adaptive Reuse in Heritage Buildings ndash the Australian Example

````````

One of the main environmental benefits of reusing buildings - retention of

original buildingrsquos ldquoembodied energyrdquo

By reusing buildings their embodied energy retained making the project much

more environmentally sustainable

Than

An entirely new construction

New buildings have much higher embodied energy costs than buildings that are

adaptively reused

Australian Greenhouse Office - reuse of building materials usually

involves a saving of approximately 95 of embodied energy over new

materials

Environmental

Benefits Of Adaptive Reuse in Heritage Buildings ndash the Australian Example

Environmental

In 2001 new building accounted for about

40 of annual energy amp raw materials

consumption

25 of wood harvest

16 of fresh water supplies

44 of landfill

45 of CO2 production and

up to 50 total greenhouse emissions

Industrial Dining Room

Social

Keeping and reusing historic buildings - long-term benefits for

communities that value them

Adaptive reuse can restore and maintain heritage significance of

a building and help to ensure its survival

Rather than

Falling into disrepair through neglect or being rendered

unrecognisable

Heritage buildings that are sympathetically recycled can continue to

be used

Reuse of heritage buildings makes good sense

ADAPTIVE RESUE

Social

Increasingly communities governments and developers are seeking ways

to reduce the environmental social and economic costs of

continued urban development and expansion

Realisation - Quality and design of built environment vital to our standard of

living and our impact upon natural resources

Lifestyle enhancement through retention of heritage buildings and their

adaptation into accessible and useable places

Reuse of heritage buildings in established residential areas can provide

community with new housing and commercial property opportunities

Reuse of heritage buildings makes good sense

ADAPTIVE RESUE

APPROACH

Adaptive reuse of a historic building should have

minimal impact on its heritage significance and its

setting

Developers should gain understanding of why

building has heritage status and then pursue

development that is sympathetic to the building to

give it a new purpose

Adaptive reuse is self-defeating if it fails to protect

the buildingrsquos heritage values

Benefits Of Adaptive Reuse in Heritage Buildings ndash the Australian Example

````````

One of the main environmental benefits of reusing buildings - retention of

original buildingrsquos ldquoembodied energyrdquo

By reusing buildings their embodied energy retained making the project much

more environmentally sustainable

Than

An entirely new construction

New buildings have much higher embodied energy costs than buildings that are

adaptively reused

Australian Greenhouse Office - reuse of building materials usually

involves a saving of approximately 95 of embodied energy over new

materials

Keeping and reusing historic buildings - long-term benefits for

communities that value them

Adaptive reuse can restore and maintain heritage significance of

a building and help to ensure its survival

Rather than

Falling into disrepair through neglect or being rendered

unrecognisable

Heritage buildings that are sympathetically recycled can continue to

be used

Reuse of heritage buildings makes good sense

ADAPTIVE RESUE

Social

Increasingly communities governments and developers are seeking ways

to reduce the environmental social and economic costs of

continued urban development and expansion

Realisation - Quality and design of built environment vital to our standard of

living and our impact upon natural resources

Lifestyle enhancement through retention of heritage buildings and their

adaptation into accessible and useable places

Reuse of heritage buildings in established residential areas can provide

community with new housing and commercial property opportunities

Reuse of heritage buildings makes good sense

ADAPTIVE RESUE

APPROACH

Adaptive reuse of a historic building should have

minimal impact on its heritage significance and its

setting

Developers should gain understanding of why

building has heritage status and then pursue

development that is sympathetic to the building to

give it a new purpose

Adaptive reuse is self-defeating if it fails to protect

Idea - to build a museum that would bridge gap between Louvre and National Museum of Modern Art at Pompidou Centre

ACT Architecture awarded contract

Involved creating 20000 sq m of new floor space on 4 floors

In 1981 the Italian architect Gae Aulenti chosen to design interior including the internal arrangement decoration furniture and fittings of the museum

Social

Keeping and reusing historic buildings - long-term benefits for

communities that value them

Adaptive reuse can restore and maintain heritage significance of

a building and help to ensure its survival

Rather than

Falling into disrepair through neglect or being rendered

unrecognisable

Heritage buildings that are sympathetically recycled can continue to

be used

Reuse of heritage buildings makes good sense

ADAPTIVE RESUE

Social

Increasingly communities governments and developers are seeking ways

to reduce the environmental social and economic costs of

continued urban development and expansion

Realisation - Quality and design of built environment vital to our standard of

living and our impact upon natural resources

Lifestyle enhancement through retention of heritage buildings and their

adaptation into accessible and useable places

Reuse of heritage buildings in established residential areas can provide

community with new housing and commercial property opportunities

Reuse of heritage buildings makes good sense

ADAPTIVE RESUE

APPROACH

Adaptive reuse of a historic building should have

minimal impact on its heritage significance and its

setting

Developers should gain understanding of why

building has heritage status and then pursue

development that is sympathetic to the building to

give it a new purpose

Adaptive reuse is self-defeating if it fails to protect

the buildingrsquos heritage values

Social

Increasingly communities governments and developers are seeking ways

to reduce the environmental social and economic costs of

continued urban development and expansion

Realisation - Quality and design of built environment vital to our standard of

living and our impact upon natural resources

Lifestyle enhancement through retention of heritage buildings and their

adaptation into accessible and useable places

Reuse of heritage buildings in established residential areas can provide

community with new housing and commercial property opportunities

Reuse of heritage buildings makes good sense

ADAPTIVE RESUE

APPROACH

Adaptive reuse of a historic building should have

minimal impact on its heritage significance and its

setting

Developers should gain understanding of why

building has heritage status and then pursue

development that is sympathetic to the building to

give it a new purpose

Adaptive reuse is self-defeating if it fails to protect

the buildingrsquos heritage values

An acoustic labyrinth (intricate structure of

interconnecting passages) with a never

before seen spatial atmosphere

Design has a rhythmic harmonious

character

BBUILDING FOR DANCE AND THEATRE ndash GENT

FORUM TOYO ITO amp ASSOC AND ANDREA BRANZI

Opening or closing several acoustical walls

- diversity of spaces created allowing the

configuration of different sound caves

Thus building able to transform itself for the

specific needs of a concert

Concept - building and its geometry might

have such an impact on the music that it

might be the cause of something new

Inner mechanism exposed through a

transparent faccedilade

Glass skin emphasises verticality as the

Weight-bearing walls - double layer

of earth-blocks

Double layer for thermodynamic

insulation

Architects introduced wood-frame

technology

In combination with

Walls also acting as heat

collectors moderating room

temperature

And

Their hard smooth finish - do not

need rendering

Wider span of classroom covered

with aid of simple metal trusses

combined with wooden beams

CONTINUITY

An acoustic labyrinth (intricate structure of

interconnecting passages) with a never

before seen spatial atmosphere

Design has a rhythmic harmonious

character

FORUM TOYO ITO amp ASSOC AND ANDREA BRANZI

Opening or closing several acoustical walls

- diversity of spaces created allowing the

configuration of different sound caves

Thus building able to transform itself for the

specific needs of a concert

Concept - building and its geometry might

have such an impact on the music that it

might be the cause of something new

Inner mechanism exposed through a

transparent faccedilade

Glass skin emphasises verticality as the
