概要
As climate change has escalated into a crisis, the reuse of existing structures is the only way to even begin to preserve our wood, sand, silicon, and iron, let alone stop belching carbon monoxide into the air. Our housing crisis means that we need usable buildings now more than ever, but architect and critic Aaron Betsky shows that new construction—often seeking to maximize profits rather than resources, often soulless in its feel—is not the answer. Whenever possible, it is better to repair, recycle, renovate, and reuse—not only from an environmental perspective, but culturally and artistically as well.
Architectural reuse is as old as civilization itself. In the streets of Europe, you can find fragments from the Roman Empire. More recently, marginalized communities from New York to Detroit—queer people looking for places to gather or cruise, punks looking to make loud music, artists and displaced people looking for space to work and live—have taken over industrial spaces created then abandoned by capitalism, forging a unique style in the process. Their methods—from urban mining to dumpster diving—now inform architects transforming old structures today.
Betsky shows us contemporary imaginative reuse throughout the world: the Mexican housing authority transforming concrete slums into well-serviced apartments; the MassMOCA museum, built out of old textile mills; the squatted city of Christiana in Copenhagen, fashioned from an old army base; Project Heidelberg in Detroit. All point towards a new circular economy of reuse, built from the ashes of the capitalist economy of consumption.
批評家のレビュー
“[An] eye-opening treatise. . . . Insights abound as Betsky delves into examples—which include not only remodeling but also disassembling old structures and reusing their constitutive parts in new projects, and touch on everything from traditional Japanese woodworking to tents designed for Coachella. Readers will be captivated by Betsky’s hopefulness."
—Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
“Nothing is as ecologically sound as reusing the things we’ve already built—and as this book makes clear, nothing is as beautiful either!”
—Bill McKibben, author of Deep Economy: The Wealth of Communities and the Durable Future
“Aaron Betsky offers an essential alternative to the wasteful paradigm of conventional construction. . . . This thought-provoking and important book is a must-read, urging readers to embrace a more sustainable, circular approach to architecture and design.”
—Stefan Al, author of Supertall: How the World’s Tallest Buildings Are Reshaping Our Cities and Our Lives
“This fantastic book extends beyond the usual parameters of reuse, incorporating powerful insights and tactics from such things as installation art, squatting, and digital simulation. Don’t Build, Rebuild is a rousing call for the decommodified and decarbonized built environment that we so desperately need.”
—Matthew Soules, author of Icebergs, Zombies, and the Ultra Thin: Architecture and Capitalism in the Twenty-First Century
“Most proposals for mitigating climate change are ‘too little, too late.’ Aaron Betsky has the courage to say ‘stop building NOW.’ Instead, he argues, we need to make better use of existing structures, and he takes us around the world to see the many ways repurposed buildings can be beautiful, egalitarian, and just.”
