How do we design for longevity? This project establishes an evaluation process that tests how a renovated existing commercial building can compare against a like-for-like new build, under the scrutiny of our tailored Metrics of Resilience. This project can be scaled up to assess various levels of intervention, such as renovation, building-over, and new-build.
