Repurposing Heritage: Strategies for Active Use of Historical Buildings in Malaysia
Abstract
The adaptive reuse of historically significant buildings represents a critical intersection between heritage conservation and contemporary development needs. This research explores the strategies for adaptive reuse. By examining the characteristics that define historical significance, this study contextualizes the adaptive reuse concept within the framework of heritage conservation. Economic considerations, such as cost savings and financial incentives, are analyzed alongside environmental benefits of sustainability and reduced resource consumption. The social and cultural implications are assessed, emphasizing the role of community engagement and the maintenance of cultural value. Architectural and structural challenges are identified, with a focus on integrating current building codes and standards while respecting historical integrity. This research aims to provide a comprehensive framework for adaptive reuse strategies, ensuring the sustainable preservation of historically significant buildings within the boundaries of established conservation guidelines.
