There is a delicate transition between the existing fabric and the potential that lies hidden within it. Conservation is rooted in a deep reverence for the historic layers, not as relics to be preserved in stasis, but as stories to be read, understood, and to amplify the building’s potential by embracing what it has to offer, without the burden to recreate the whole past. The building’s uncertain elements are not flaws but tangible records of its journey, shaped by both human and natural forces. To intervene in such a space is not to erase the marks of time but to work with the existing elements, letting the history and the materiality of the building breathe.
