Description

Sometimes restoring a building is more complicated than constructing a new one, not simply because of the historical value of the part which is to be preserved, but also bearing in mind the state of the structure is often not known before the project gets underway. This makes these commissions a real challenge as the architect must put into practice very different strategies to those deployed on a new-build. ThisSpanish title, exclusive to RIBA Bookshops in the UK, presents 28 case studies of sensitive conversions, including work from Enric Miralles, Jo Crepain and Greg Gong. Projects include residential conversions of historic buildings such as the Hamburg Soup Kitchen, farmhouses and warehouses. The studies are clear and uncluttered with plenty of plans and photographs.
