The refurbishment of existing housing stock presents a great opportunity for architects. With this context in mind, as well as the launch of the government’s Green Deal initiative, the RIBA’s 7th annual research symposium asked the question: what challenges and problems lie beneath the maxim ‘don’t move, improve’? Encompassing issues including conservation, sustainability and design quality, the symposium explored whether old houses can become modern homes. The event included case studies from both architects and academics, as well as the presentation of an exciting student design charrette showcasing how schools of architecture came together to tackle the challenge of retrofit. Presentations are available online.
