Résumé
Volume 1 explains how to identify appropriate uses for buildings using numerous examples and case studies. It discusses the choice between design intervention, repair and replication, and when to use new techniques or traditional skills. Designing with clarity and sensitivity is one of the key requirements, as well as reflecting the importance of the landscape or townscape within which the building is situated.This volume also offers advice on how to encourage both planners and those funding projects to support proposals involving re-use in order to ensure the long term value of existing structures. Volume 2 offers an extensive collection of illustrated examples from different parts of the UK showing buildings of every shape size and type. Each building type is examined separately: country houses, hospitals, industrial buildings, offices, railway stations, farms with outbuildings, churches, schools and many others.
