Adaptive Reuse, Cultural Heritage, Sustainable Development, Cultural Preservation, Urban Planning, Challenges, Case StudiesAbstract
The importance of adaptive reuse in preserving cultural heritage and promoting sustainable development is examined in this research. Reusing existing structures for new purposes, or adaptive reuse, is a crucial tactic in urban planning and architecture. This strategy provides a comprehensive way to strike a balance between the needs of the present and the preservation of historical assets by combining cultural preservation with sustainability. In order to demonstrate the applicability of adaptive reuse in contemporary architecture and sustainable urban development, this study explores the approaches, advantages, difficulties, and case studies of adaptive reuse projects, mostly in the Indian setting.
