METHODOLOGIES OF ARCHITECTURAL REUSE AR1AR010

This essay was written for the Methodologies of Architectural Re-use (AR1AR080) course at the faculty of Architecture at the TU Delft. This essay is a response to a set of lectures that where given on the subject of Architectural Conservation. The purpose of this essay is to give a written reaction to the lectures but more importantly to clarify my own position concerning the conservation methodology. To illustrate my position, I will use several examples of projects and will reflect on my own design for the re-use of the Santos warehouse in Rotterdam. Before I elaborate on my own design, I will first explain a few notions concerning the theoretical conservation debate and also elaborate on how they influence the practice and why they are still valid but also under attack. Finally I will argue why in my opinion these principles should be more open to interpretation.
