Many existing buildings can be transformed to make them suitable for use as housing. A transformation gives redundant or empty buildings a new and valuable lease of life. Office buildings, care homes, monasteries and other buildings that are no longer used can be transformed into housing units and saved from demolition. By restoring these buildings to their former glory, they can be occupied again and are given a valuable function.
