Webinar

Friday 05 July 2024
10:00 - 11:00

Snow Hill by Axiom Architects

Join us for this webinar showcasing a selection of London's adaptive reuse projects highlighting how existing buildings are being repurposed and transformed into new hotels.

Retaining and repurposing existing structures and materials serves to maintain the historical integrity of buildings while at the same time reducing the environmental impact of construction. This NLA webinar showcases how buildings in London are being transformed into hotels, retaining their unique historical character, pioneering sustainable building practices, and attracting tourists eager to experience the city’s rich heritage.

Hear from leading architects, engineers, and developers as they share their experiences with the complexities, challenges, and innovative solutions in delivering adaptive reuse hotel projects. What are the technical challenges of reducing the operational and embodied carbon of existing buildings? How are built environment professionals rethinking the design of existing buildings to revitalize places with purpose?

Contemplating the intersection of architectural conservation, structural engineering and environmental sustainability, this webinar explores how built environment professionals are balancing conserving the existing fabric of buildings and introducing modern functionality.
