Résumé en anglais
What happens with the spirit of place of a building
that becomes functionally obsolete but is worth reconverting?It is a challenge in our current preservation practice to develop
sustainable and creative strategies to rescue old buildings.Experts tend to concentrate on the theoretical, technical and
management solutions. The intangible aspects that sustain theidentity of the material structure are usually known but seldom
taken into account, let alone enhanced, when the revitalisationprogramme is carried out. The aim of this paper is to propose
a few items to which the intervention programme should payattention in order to add to the whole revitalisation of both,
material and intangible values of a building.
