Adaptive reuse has become one of our favorite ways of building - it takes a lot of patience and imagination to understand what you can and cannot do (as we say in Spanish - construction on an existing building is often “una cajita de sorpresas” or a small mystery) but each time we are able to successfully bring a new life to an existing structure we know it’s the right way to go. It is deeply satisfying to weave old and new, to preserve stories and at the same time breathe new life.
As Carl Elefante, former president of the American Institute of Architects, said: ‘The greenest building is the one that already exists’. It’s often true that the least expensive building is the one that already exists, which is why much of our existing affordable housing is in also found existing buildings.
That’s why from a carbon and cost perspective- it is hard to beat adaptive reuse and I agree it is key to the future.
I especially was inspired and love #5 on this list - the idea that we can build social equity with these projects.

💡Adaptive reuse is the future of architecture.♻
The number of adaptive reuse projects being completed globally has skyrocketed. 🚀
While adaptive reuse projects may go by different names, from infills to conversions and restorations, the central idea is simple:
Work with what’s already there and create something new.💡
Promoting sustainable, responsible, and environmentally-friendly growth and development, these projects have the potential to invigorate a community by meeting the changing needs of a city or neighborhood..
But it's not easy!
Thankfully, the following tips from Architizer writer Eric Baldwin outline how architects and designers can begin designing for adaptive reuse:
1️⃣ Start with the basics ℹ
2️⃣ Understand costs & sustainability 🌿
3️⃣ Check the standards 📝
4️⃣ Turn challenges into opportunities 💪
5️⃣ Build social equity ⚖

2024 Architecture: A Sustainable & Human Focus 🏡⛪
The future of architecture prioritizes sustainability! Expect buildings designed for minimal environmental impact, utilizing renewable energy and recycled materials. Biophilic design integrates nature for occupant well-being.
We're also seeing a shift towards adaptive reuse, giving new life to existing structures while minimizing waste. Technology plays a role too, with BIM improving collaboration and generative design optimizing building functionalities.
Finally, human-centered design takes center stage, with architects focusing on occupant well-being and fostering a sense of community within the space.

1,700 projects per year and disrupting architecture for good.
Our conversation with Mark Hood from Resi, the UK's largest residential architectural firm, offered a fascinating look at how technology is transforming the world of design.
Resi handles an impressive 1,700 projects per year, accounting for 1% of the UK market share in residential extensions.
Their innovative software allows customers to design extensions in real-time, much like Tesla's car configurator.
By leveraging technology to collaborate with clients and architects, Resi has achieved a 99% planning approval rate.
They also focus on retrofitting homes for energy efficiency, aiming to deliver sustainable homes at scale.
Resi's data-driven approach to product development and strong company culture has positioned them as a leader in tech-enabled architecture.
As the industry evolves, firms like Resi are paving the way for a future where traditional services blend seamlessly with cutting-edge technology, shaping the future of the built environment.
What are your thoughts on the role of technology in architecture? How do you see it transforming the industry in the coming years?
