Architectural conservation and adaptive reuse of heritage buildings represent a vital academic and professional approach aiming to safeguard urban memory while achieving sustainability. Rather than demolishing aging structures, research focuses on restoring and repurposing them for contemporary functions, such as cultural centers and museums. This approach reduces construction and demolition waste, preserves embodied energy within original materials, and boosts the local economy through cultural tourism. Balancing authentic heritage elements with modern technology ensures the continuity of architectural identity, successfully passing cultural heritage on to future generations within a sustainable, highly functional framework.
