Jaw-Dropping Building Conversions
Rundown water towers, forgotten farmhouses, and decaying church-
es are like mold- ing clay for these architects and de- signers.
A church becomes a new apartment, an old water tower be- comes
a family’s dream house, and an airplane hang- ar turns into
an |
island resort. You and I may not have that vision when we look at
one of these old buildings, but that’s the imaginative genius
behind the chal- lenging task of architectural conver- sion. more

"Architecture is a personal ef- fort and the
fewer people coming between you and your work the better. This keeps
some people from practicing architecture... If an architect cares enough,
and practices architecture as an art, then he must initiate design;
he must create rather than make judgments."
