The hypothesis of the seminar is that the problem of heritage is related to the problem of memory. Preservation and adaptation are architecture s way of thinking about the past.Adaptive reuse is the name of a set of practices that look at the past not as an enclosed point in time but as a virtual horizon relevant for the present. The seminar provides a comprehensive insight into two main theoretical questions surrounding adaptive reuse: firstly, the process of transition in architecture and secondly, the interpretation of images that can inspire architects in finding new uses and atmosphere for heritage sites. How do images operate as methodological principles with the contemporary challenges concerning the built heritage?
The seminar is an interdisciplinary platform that relates anthropological, philosophical and artistic conceptions to the re-use of adaptable heritage.

- Seminar by S. Heynickx:
An individual access login (student pays a fee) for the 'Sketch Atlas' is obligatory (www.sketchatlas.org). The Sketch Atlas is a digital online platform for manual drawing where instructional videos and knowledge clips are collected and serve as supporting teaching material for both preparation and work sessions and home assignments. This strictly personal annual subscription is self-administered by the student; further clarification will follow at the start of the seminar.
- The course consists of various texts that the lecturer will provide and that will be discussed during the seminar.
- Seminar by K. Van Cleempoel:
- The course consists of various texts that the lecturer will provide and that will be discussed during the seminar.
- Considering that the theme of the seminar is "Heritage in Transition" we shall read texts from authors meant to increase the conceptual potential of the final projects. The texts pertain to domains such as architectural theory, philosophy, sociology of culture, anthropology or art theory. A valuable book to purchase (though not compulsary), is: Fred Scott, On Altering Architetcure (Routledge).

|
| Remarks |
| |
The goal of the seminar is to integrate these conceptual concerns regarding the temporal and transitional aspect of architecture into the students' studio work. The ambition is to blend as much as possible theoretical reflections and design-oriented interventions. |

Learning outcomes Master of Interior Architecture (English)
|
- EC
| Can innovatively apply the methods and theories of interior design, in particular in the domain of adaptive re-use, and can combine these efficiently with insights from human sciences, exact sciences, and the arts. | - EC
| Can research (by design) with a sense of intuition, experiment, associative thinking, imagination and emotion and, in doing so, displays an artistic-explorative, visual-imaginative perspective. | - EC
| Has knowledge about and insight in the work field, both actual and historical, of the interior architect, is able to situate one's own practice within this framework and can implement the newest developments within the work field in one's design practice. | - EC
| Can innovatively use materials, taking into account their characteristics, possibilities, and limitations with respect to texture, tactility, light, colour and acoustics and with a particular sensitivity to their esthetic qualities. | - EC
| Can communicate a design(process) convincingly to novices and specialists in images, written and spoken word, using the appropriate visualization techniques, both digital and manual, in a balanced, targeted, and deliberate way. | - EC
| Starting from a complex design question, can independently set up and execute relevant research, integrate the results in the design process, scientifically report about it, and interpret own and others' research results critically, in particular within the domain of adaptive re-use. | - EC
| Can independently apply and come up with research- and design strategies within a societal, historically defined and international context, and in function of a future oriented vision on the design of an interior space. |
