Abstract

Contemporary architectural
practice often privileges
new construction, risking
the loss of architecture’s
socio-cultural dimension
in favour of standardized,
market-oriented production.
This paper argues for the
re-emergence of reuse as a
fundamental design strategy,
rooted in historical building
practices that emphasized
adaptation and material
continuity.
