Reading about the building and restoration of the Neues Museum in Berlin pg198-221.
"a single continuous structure that incorporates nearly all of the available damaged fabric while allowing a series of contemporary elements to be added"
"a multidisciplinary interaction between repairing , conserving, restoring and recreating"
"the contemporary reflects the lost without imitating it"
"the mixed approach to the building: parts have been repaired, others replaced with copies, and new ones invented, always remaining faithful to the aesthetic unity of the building"
"Timeless grids". No grids are not timeliness. They are simple and quick to build. That is why you designed a building that way. So you can quickly complete it and move on to the next project.
