restoration (by Norman Foster)

Restoration, as designed by Norman Foster, involves carefully repairing and revitalizing historic buildings or structures to preserve their original character while upgrading their functionality and safety. Foster’s approach combines respect for the original architecture with modern techniques and materials, ensuring the building remains relevant and sustainable. This process often includes cleaning, repairing damaged elements, updating infrastructure, and sometimes integrating new features subtly. The goal is to conserve the cultural and historical significance of the structure while making it a practical, future-ready space for contemporary use, blending tradition with innovation seamlessly.
