Sadly, this week, a fire has ravaged one of Copenhagen's most iconic historic buildings. This tragic event is the latest in a series of recent fires in emblematic historic buildings (e.g., the Notre-Dame and Shuri Castle fires in 2019, the fire at the National Museum of Brazil in 2018, etc.) that have resulted in huge losses of cultural heritage. Therefore, it is just another reminder of how vulnerable historic buildings are to fire. Although there have been significant advances in research, the fire safety of historic buildings is still alarming, with important research gaps to be addressed. The following study, co-written with Ignacio Paya-Zaforteza and Antonio Hospitaler, provides further discussion on this topic: https://lnkd.in/dUstWpE8 Hopefully, lessons will be learned from this sad event and measures will be taken to prevent further loss of heritage due to fire in the future. #fire #heritage #historicbuilding

- The conservation and restoration of immovable cultural property encompass a meticulous process aimed at preserving the material, historical, and design integrity of such properties. - This involves carefully planned interventions led by architectural conservator-restorers. - The decision-making process regarding when and how to intervene plays a crucial role in the successful conservation and restoration of cultural heritage. - Ultimately, these decisions are based on values, taking into account artistic, contextual, and informational aspects. - However, in certain situations, choosing not to intervene may be the most suitable option.

Answer to our survey on traditional building crafts ! This survey has been devised by Future for Religious Heritage (FRH) and Mad'in Europe to have, across Europe, a better understanding of built heritage crafts in terms of practice and knowledge. The safeguarding of heritage craft skills is an important part of the European sustainability agenda, enabling historic buildings and artefacts to be preserved for the future. This is why it is very important to know whether there are crafts that are in danger of being lost in particular countries and how this loss can be prevented, including by supporting vocational education and by understanding if both supply and demand can be matched. The survey is aimed at three types of respondents: - crafts people specialised in built heritage conservation - architects, curators, conservation surveyors, conservation engineers and owners of heritage buildings - schools and craft training establishments Thank you for your collaboration ! Spread the voice !! #heritagecrafts #builtheritage #craftsmanship #traditionalarchitecture #historicbuildings #heritageconservation

"We try our best to preserve the Maltese architectural legacy by restoring some of the country’s historical gems, keeping in mind the needs of the clients who will eventually reside in this space, or make use of the building.” One recent example of this is Santa Rosa in Mosta, which is made up of two houses previously owned by two siblings and their families."

To a great master! "Sponge city is a water-resilient city built on nature-based ecological infrastructure, which is called a green sponge," he explained. "Its strategy is to retain water at the site, slow down water flow, and be adaptive to the force of water, which is totally opposite to the grey infrastructure that all industrial and modern cities are dependent on – big dams to accumulate water, channel rivers back to flush away floods, and building floods wall to keep out a flood." "The sponge city is rooted in the ancient wisdom of monsoon climate adaptation and is nature-based, and therefore can be upgraded and be inspiring to solve the problems of global climate change." "That is why I will advocate Sponge Planet," "By doing that, landscape architecture can also include political and social advocacy and use political and administrative force." - Kongjian Yu #spongecity #spongecities #ecology #biodiversity #sustainability #resilience #adaptation #mitigation #bluegreen #landscapearchitecture #urbandesign #toposcape
