What does wartime circularity look like? Take a look at our new research article published by Adam Przywara. doi.org/10.1080/1753... #WartimeCircularity #CircularEconomy #AdaptiveReuse #MaterialSalvage #Solidarity #SupplyChains
Great profile about the wildly successful adaptive reuse of a large former high school in South Philly, with clear benefits to the local community, artists, small businesses, and the City. Have been glad to see it grow and succeed during the 10+ years I've lived in the neighborhood.
Ukrainian architecture and interiors studio HE.D Group has transformed a former pair of grocery stores into Love by the Moon, a womenswear boutique in Kyiv defined by hand-painted fabrics, custom timber joinery, and a sense of openness enhanced by tall ceilings and large windows. #adaptivereuse #Boutiquedesign #TimberinArchitecture
Building a #Sustainable home in the #Australian #Outback
May 25, 2025
"In 2024 Anika Molesworth and her partner set out to build a family home in a remote part of New South Wales. They were looking to create, in Anika’s words, 'something comfortable, a beautiful space that complemented the land, and a house that doesn’t cost the planet.' That was the mission. But after speaking with various builders, both local and from afar, and getting ideas on new house builds (mainly kit-home/modular type things) they all just felt wrong. The ideas they were presenting and the materials they would be using, went against the whole idea of sustainability.
"Faced with these new-build issues, Anika’s attention turned to an abandoned homestead on her family’s property. 'It was very humble. Like seriously humble. Tiny windows, small dark rooms, not an ounce of insulation. Never connected to any services. It was going to be a big task making it comfortable.' But Anika could see the potential.
"A few local builders were invited over to have a look and give their ideas. The first one said 'better to build a new home using refrigerator panels.' Which he happened to sell, dismissing the renovation concept as a waste of time and money. Time and again Anika bumped up with people who just could not see the vision and had no idea what she was talking about with ‘recycling, reclaiming and using natural materials’. Local suppliers – from electricians to plumbing – just tried to sell her the same cheap, imported products. When Anika spoke to a local plumbing supplier about composting toilets she was simply met with eye rolling."

Let me see. #Subdivision residents have had a problem with folks cutting through their property? Why not create a semi-public thoroughfare that has lighting along the paths? If that's the only argument against creating new housing, I think that's pretty lame... Especially when the "problem" already exists! Solve the problem, and help provide housing!!!
#Indiana - Developer to turn empty office into apartments
JORDAN FOUTS, August 22, 2025
GOSHEN — "An office building across from Fidler Pond Park could become an apartment building under plans heard Tuesday.
"The Goshen Plan Commission voted to rezone property at 1423 Lincolnway East to allow the former Commodore Homes office to be transformed into an apartment building. The proposal includes 24 studio and one-bedroom units in a two-story building.
"The board’s recommendation that the property be rezoned from commercial to residential will be taken up next by Goshen Common Council. Board member Doug Nisley voted against the rezoning after several [subdivision] residents voiced fears of seeing extra foot traffic come through their own property."
[...]
"“What has been happening, even when just Commodore was there, is people cross over through private property to get to our streets so that they can take walks [to the nearby park] or go to the grocery store or do whatever." [THE NIMBY HORROR OF THAT!!!]

A Corporate Solution To The #HousingCrisis That Will Help Cities Thrive
By Dean Kaplan,
Aug 21, 2025
Excerpt: "Reshaping vacant office space into new apartments could create around 1.25 million new homes across 91 U.S. cities, study analysts found. Over 70,000 conversions may happen in 2025 alone as architects, builders and developers take advantage of #AdaptiveReuse incentives in cities from #Boston to #SanFrancisco."
