New and old coexist in harmony due to continued adaptation, preservation, and re-use. The result is a vibrant and flourishing city that is constantly re-inventing itself. This project examines how such transformations have been enacted in the physical sense, through the lens of an architect. The projects selected-historic buildings and urban spaces-reflect the variety of survival and integration tactics employed in a constantly changing urban landscape. Through the documentation and analysis of these sites I have elicited a series of lessons depicted through drawings and diagrams. For architects, builders, and clients, Rome reminds us that the buildings we design and construct rarely retain their original function throughout their lifespan. To build sustainably, we must create adaptable structures, and more importantly look for ways to give new life to old structures; Rome shows us how to do this.
