Adaptive reuse is now one of the most critical methods of conserving heritage. This concept is essential in the survival process of heritage sites and calls on all the designers' talents. In this studio, we develop adapted customs and rituals for some of these sites to pass them healthily to future generations. This transmission is a shared social responsibility. We, therefore, enter into dialogue with owners, users, residents, experts, etc.

As designers, we add a new layer or chapter to a collective narrative. As (interior) architects, we start from the interior but also look at the exterior, landscape, and context. Thorough (design) research is fundamental to arriving at good design decisions.
From an investigative process, design assignments are elaborated in which the redevelopment of existing sites plays a central role.

Aspects of being dealt with:

- interior with connecting exterior and landscape
- research and design of representative and inspiring activities for a particular destination in an existing complex (large-scale and with a historical and/or industrial character)
- complex organisation of re-use functions within a complex spatial context (spatial and social)
- attention/dialogue for/with (possible) users
- to create an integrated whole, an in-depth study of the items related to the assignments is done through site visits, texts and study trips.

- attention to choices and consequences concerning sustainability
