A new beginning for old spaces: buildings will succumb to the passage of time and eventually become obsolete

A new beginning for old spaces: buildings will succumb to the passage of time and eventually become obsolete. [Newspaper] (2022)



Abstract

Cities are sometimes described as a concrete jungle, with buildings of varying heights and shapes covering the ground and roads and pathways winding their way through in a maze-like pattern. Buildings are constructed over time, and like with anything that succumbs to the passage of time, some will become obsolete and outdated. Many buildings are eventually abandoned, and those that are located within core metropolitan districts become a sight to behold for any passer-by. Fortunately, not all abandoned buildings are beyond repair, and with a little extra imagination and a dash of sustainable innovation, a long-forgotten structure can be entirely transformed into a new architectural piece that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing.
