Summary:
Ce livre sur la reconversion de bâtiments industriels est divisé en quatre parties : des espaces publics : salle de sports, centre de documentation, bibliothèques ; des espaces culturels : musées, galeries, théâtre ; des espaces commerciaux : hôtels, centre artisanal, garage ; des appartements et studios. 34 réalisations sont présentées avec photographies et plans d’architectes.

"Industrial chic" reflects this constant and modern transformation of urban landscape in several cities around the world.

Summary:
Défendre une architecture du bien commun, signifie interroger le bâtiment mais aussi les conditions de son édification, les pratiques spatiales, l’usage social, l’attachement au lieu. En s’appuyant sur des exemples oasiens au Maroc, l’ouvrage développe une réflexion critique qui s’attache à corriger une certaine idée de la modernité afin de définir les conditions d’une nouvelle régulation de la production architecturale dans un contexte de forte contrainte environnementale. Il s’agit donc de dépasser l’esthétique de l’héritage et interroger plutôt son capital de résilience. C’est cette dynamique constante de l’adaptation qui est en souffrance aujourd’hui et qu’il faut réactiver pour sortir du tout-béton destructeur des potentiels environnementaux et sociétaux.

The use of existing residential buildings scores not only with the charm of what has been handed down, be it a baroque villa, a 19th-century farmhouse, or a post-war bungalow, but(...)

Summary:
How can homes be upgraded to meet today’s demands – from living comfort to energy efficiency and digital requirements? How can the fusion of the historic and the new be used as a design element? The use of existing residential buildings scores not only with the charm of what has been handed down, be it a baroque villa, a 19th-century farmhouse, or a post-war bungalow, but actually also always with an excellent ecological balance. The extensive reworking, whether modernization, renovation or extension, is a widespread and thoroughly rewarding task for many architects. Since the initial situation is documented for each of the presented projects, the reader can clearly understand the redesign process.

Summary:
One of the biggest challenges architects face today is creatively bringing new life and function to existing structures. The transition from the industrial age to our current information society consequently demands and fosters phenomenal possibilities to redefine these old structures. Build-On examines architecture in flux between tradition and transformation. The book presents examples of large-scale radical renovations and adaptations of industrial wasteland, bunkers, abandoned churches, forsaken rural centres and obsolete underground systems as well as creative transformations of smaller building units in the urban and rural context. These overlooked architectural sites are reborn as inhabitable residences, working spaces, art spaces and hotels.
