A construction manual exploring material reuse and inhabitation among the ruins of Serjilla.
The proposal approaches Serjilla as both cultural heritage and a landscape of material resources. Presented as a construction manual, it explores how shelter, productive activity, and conservation might develop through a shared system of reuse.
Vegetation, phased construction, and cascading material use structure the proposal. Different building types are reinterpreted as dwellings, workshops, gardens, and shared spaces, with restoration priorities changing over time.
An academic critical-conservation proposal developed in 2023 under Jian Guo. It asks how restoration can accommodate changing needs while treating existing material as an active resource.
