Krátky popis
A guide to contemporary architecture practice in one of the most
important fields today - the transformative adaptation of existing
buildings. A manifesto and survey of contemporary practice by one
of the leading offices in this domain, Deborah Berke Partners. For
over 30 years, Deborah Berke Partners has been a leader in
transforming old buildings for new futures.Transform: The
Architecture of Adaptation will explore and document the ecological
and urban imperative to revive and adapt existing built fabric, and
it will demonstrate innovative and timeless tools and methods for
creating successful new architecture out of old structures and
found conditions. The book will be illustrated primarily, but not
exclusively, with projects by Deborah Berke Partners, including
academic buildings, boutique hotels, and community and cultural
centers. Essays by Deborah Berke, Noah Biklen, Arthi
Krishnamoorthy, and Alan Brake introduce each chapter.It will also
include contributions by critics, planners, and artists with a
shared interest in creating a sustainable, equitable, and enriching
urban environment. Contributors include artist Titus Kaphar, urban
history scholar Karen Seto, environmenal design leaders Atelier
Ten, and photographer Christopher Payne. The term 'adaptive reuse'
is bland and imprecise.It implies a lack of rigor, as if old
buildings were discarded objects that can easily be repurposed,
like a turning an old milk crate into a bookshelf. Buildings - good
ones, bad ones, whether designed by a famous architect, or without
an author are complex things, with histories, with impacts on their
surroundings, with relations to people and places. They do not all
deserve to be saved, but many do.Sometimes an unremarkable building
can be transformed into something better than it ever was. Even
good buildings by noted architects can be improved upon, especially
if their use has changed or if their context has been significantly
altered. In much of the country, particularly small to mid-sized,
post-industrial cities, opportunities abound for the creative reuse
of existing buildings.Deborah Berke Partners approaches these
building - old warehouses, office buildings, even a historic
sanatorium designed by H. H. Richardson - as material resources and
as the foundation of sustainable urban redevelopment.These projects
have impacts that extend far beyond their walls - this work is part
of an urgent rethinking of American urbanism.
