Conversion and transformation of historic buildings and industrial site reclamation projects are becoming topics of renewed interest. Many industrial buildings beckon architecture design theory to revitalize urban areas and make new use of public space. Ruins and historic sites speak to us about the need to rethink settings which belong to long-lost ages and yet are contemporary in the stories they reveal. There are present-day problematic and sensitive areas (abandoned quarries, ex industrial plants, landfills, etc.) which inspire renewed critical thinking; themes of memory and recollection touch us in the here and now. In contrast with the 1970s and 1980 s’ tendency to treat such topics with a mix of lightheartedness and nostalgia, the projects presented in this work regard history as a process of revision and reclamation of profound spatial and social principles. Contact with historic, industrial and modern spaces pushes us to apply new methodological approaches in an effort to re-write the present. In fact, nowadays it is imperative that we engage a relationship with the past which takes into consideration not only ancient legacies but also those entrenched in 20th century crises—uncomfortable memories often embodied in areas of great landscape or historic value. How are we to approach our relationship with these legacies? Critical studies illustrate the value of those projects capable of breathing new life into the fabric of urban space by creating public areas and city parks. Memory, seemingly pushed into a playful, irreverently lighthearted vein for years, is thus allowed once again to speak to us of the human and social desire to reclaim time and provide urban and suburban areas with new opportunities for regeneration and growth.

废弃景观项目设计

历史建筑的改建和工业用地复垦项目正成为重新关注的话题。许多工业建筑都在召唤建筑设计理论来振兴城市地区并重新利用公共空间。废墟和历史遗迹告诉我们需要重新思考那些属于久违的时代但在它们所揭示的故事中具有当代意义的环境。当今有问题和敏感的区域（废弃的采石场、前工业厂房、垃圾填埋场等）激发了新的批判性思维；记忆和回忆的主题在此时此地触动着我们。与 1970 年代和 1980 年代以轻松和怀旧的混合方式处理此类话题的倾向相反，这项工作中提出的项目将历史视为对深刻的空间和社会原则进行修正和恢复的过程。与历史、工业和现代空间的接触促使我们应用新的方法论方法来重写现在。事实上，如今我们必须与过去建立一种关系，这种关系不仅要考虑古老的遗产，还要考虑那些在 20 世纪危机中根深蒂固的东西——不舒服的记忆通常体现在具有伟大景观或历史价值的地区。我们如何处理与这些遗产的关系？批判性研究说明了那些能够通过创建公共区域和城市公园为城市空间结构注入新活力的项目的价值。多年来，记忆似乎被推入了一种顽皮的、不敬的轻松愉快的脉络中，
