Is it better to demolish or renovate?

Moving forward, I will sometimes share practical examples, , for all of you #arkhlient s out there.

Today is an important one: There is no need to fall into the new shiny object trap 

Repurposing rather than buying and retrofitting rather than demolishing could help us achieve more with our budget and it is much better for nature and the environment. 

Context: Over the years, the idea of convenience has shaped the infrastructure that supports our daily activities, and this slowly but surely has had an impact on nature and caused inconvenience to many others across the globe. (Visit youtube and search Atacama Desert, Ghana landfill or plastic ocean for example) 

Instead, when you look and understand what you have to play with, you can achieve a lot more with much less investment required. 
 
When you work with a professional, they will be able to help you identify anything that could be of value and if you listen to them you could unlock amazing results. 

Recently, in a project of ours the client was adamant that they wanted to replace all windows, but after a thorough assessment we discovered that not all required replacing and that some small updates could bring the old windows to the level of performance they required, for a much smaller budget.
