dc.description.abstractAI-GENERATED ABSTRACT: Abstract: This research paper explores the concept of value in existing buildings and proposes re-inhabiting the interior space as a means to re-establish their value. The paper argues that beyond aesthetic and historical significance, the use value of a building plays a crucial role in determining its value. The concept of adaptive reuse is introduced as a tool to re-inhabit existing buildings, thereby re-establishing their value. Three case studies of successful adaptive reuse projects are critically analyzed to understand their impact and design decisions. The paper concludes with an interior architecture project that demonstrates how re-inhabiting can enhance the value of an existing building. The methodology involves a qualitative review of literature from various sources, including books, journal articles, and theses. The findings contribute to the understanding of the value of existing buildings and provide insights into the potential of adaptive reuse in architectural practice. Keywords: Value, existing buildings, re-inhabiting, adaptive reuse, interior architectureen
