"Adaptive Reuse" - Smart Use of Existing Structures

"Adaptive reuse used to be a tactic of necessity - people didn't have the time, energy or money to build something new so they made the best with what they had. Today it is a way to stand out, make a statement, go bold and try something completely different. From airplanes, chapels and garages turned into houses to airplane hangers turned into tropical rain forest resorts, the possibilities are essentially endless. Know of other recycled design or amazing architecture projects? Be sure to list them in the comments below!..."

"Brilliant ... Superb:" with an exclamation mark.

The author is obviously impressed. With good reason, I think.
