Urban regeneration has become a key concept in relation to urban transformation issues and in recent years has been effectively expressed in the development of ad hoc legislative instruments.

Re-thinking school spaces under latent pandemic conditions

Research

Abstract The adaptive reuse of existing buildings is central to the contemporary architecture debate. This phenomenon has become so important that prominent architects argue that the total demolition of any historic building in the contemporary city seems unthinkable.
