The remodelling of interiors is often taken as the opportunity to unveil spatial possibilities. Here it refers to the reconfiguration of existing spaces to create new living environments. This process results in the replacement or improvement of that which already exists, and so the coexistence of old and new architectural elements becomes a significant factor. Two main situations apply. First, residential spaces that no longer suit the occupants' needs, and second, the conversion of non-residential spaces. The country environment offers many structures that have outlived an industrial or agricultural use and are now eagerly sought after as living spaces. The idea in both cases is to create vibrant spaces - functional and versatile, that consider and facilitate the occupants' daily routines, movements and tastes. This book contains plenty of examples of such projects.
