Résumé:

The German architectural practice KSP has become a leader in innovative reconstruction and redesign of old buildings. This survey features a number of their projects throughout Germany the refurbishing of an office tower in the heart of Frankfurt; a housing complex converted to a hotel; a state-ofthe- art library that once housed a bank; and more. Interviews with engineers, architectural historians, and conservators offer a wide variety of perspectives on the value of re-use, the importance of historical preservation, and the possibilities of conversion. The examples put forth in this collection include photographs and plans of each project, and create a valuable reference work for anyone interested in this vital aspect of renewable living.
