The need to recycle the vast quantity of social housing conflicts with the rapid process of functional and technological obsolescence of the inherited housing models. The process of recycling social housing should first of all improve the design choices relating to the length of the interventions, and improve the ability to offset the advance of obsolescence caused by the use of products designed with a short term performance capacity and by the repeated use of rigid spatial-typological models that are incapable of adapting to the changing demands of the housing market. Our paper focuses on the concept of flexibility as a fundamental requirement for restoration work on residential building stock in order to extend their life cycle, through strategies and constructive solutions that ensure both the transformability of the space in response to changing of user needs and the use of building materials and components that encourage the reversibility and maintainability of the technological choices during the long term.

Abstract

The need to recycle the vast quantity of social housing conflicts with the rapid process of functional and technological obsolescence of the inherited housing models. The process of recycling social housing should first of all improve the design choices relating to the length of the interventions, and improve the ability to offset the advance of obsolescence caused by the use of products designed with a short term performance capacity and by the repeated use of rigid spatial-typological models that are incapable of adapting to the changing demands of the housing market. Our paper focuses on the concept of flexibility as a fundamental requirement for restoration work on residential building stock in order to extend their life cycle, through strategies and constructive solutions that ensure both the transformability of the space in response to changing of user needs and the use of building materials and components that encourage the reversibility and maintainability of the technological choices during the long term.
