The goal is always to find a thread between what a building or a site has been and what it can become\u2014adding something new and distinctly contemporary without erasing what came before. In practice, this means new architecture layered within old, and materials reused rather than discarded\u2014finding value in what is already there. The lecture will highlight projects that try giving people a more complex relationship with history: not as something finished and separate, but as something alive that we actively engage with, reinterpret, and continue."}
