The transformation of buildings is one of the main emergent themes in contemporary architecture. This does not only count for monuments, but also
for the existing housing stock. This graduation project deals with the transformation of 4 buildings in Delft, build in the ERA- building system – a non-traditional construction system.
Because of the urban planning the quality of living degrades downwards in the building, simultaneously to the degradation of views. To tackle that problem and to meet current living standards the views get improved through small interventions in and around the buildings. To protect the environment in multiple ways materials and building parts get reused to keep the embodied energy low and achieve direct carbon related savings.
