Converting historic textile-industry complexes in European cities:A typology of urban spatial structures of textile-industry complexes, and best conservation and enhancement practices for their conversion

改造历史悠久的工业综合体是许多欧洲城市的一项新的重要任务。建筑和规划实践表明，历史工业综合体是由城市空间结构组成的，在转换为新用途的过程中可能会得到保护和增强。对于研究，问题出现了，什么是最好的做法，为保护和增强时，转换历史性的工业综合体。最佳实践将根据建筑和保护辩论中得出的五个标准进行讨论和确定。识别前纺织工业区的历史城市空间结构。因此，将开发一个类型学，有助于历史城市设计的研究。2.确定改造历史性工业综合体的最佳做法。将解决以下问题：如何在实践中处理的历史性城市空间结构的保护和增强？将对设计和规划实践进行比较分析，并确定最佳实践（有助于对建筑的论述）。该项目将分析来自欧洲城市的25个代表性案例研究，重点是对8个纺织城市的前纺纱和织造米尔斯工厂的案例研究转换。另外几个案例研究将作为一个参考小组。将通过数据表/编目和比较分析系统地收集这些案件。此外，调查结果将讨论其与古迹保护和城市发展的相关性。该研究建立在DFG项目的基础上：历史工业建筑和城市发展，创意产业和建筑生产的目标。该作品构成申请人的障碍的主要部分，并将被出版。

Converting historic industrial complexes is a new and important task in many European cities. Architectural and planning practices show that historic industrial complexes are composed of urban spatial structures that might be conserved and enhanced during conversion to new uses. For research, the question arises, of what constitutes best practice for conservation and enhancement when converting historic industrial complexes. Best practice will be discussed and identified, based on five criteria derived from debates in architecture and conservation.The research project will achieve two aims: 1. To identify the historic urban spatial structures of former textile-industry complexes. Accordingly, a typology will be developed, contributing to research on historic urban design. 2. To identify best practice in converting historic industrial complexes. The following questions will be addressed: How are the conservation and enhancement of historic urban spatial structures handled in practice? Design and planning practices will be comparatively analyzed, and best practice will be identified (contributing to the discourse on architecture).The project will analyze 25 representative case studies from European cities, focusing on case study conversions of former spinning and weaving mills in eight textile cities. Several additional case studies will function as a reference group. The cases will be systematically captured through data sheets / cataloguing and comparative analysis. Additionally, the findings will be discussed in terms of their relevance for monument protection and urban development. The research builds on the DFG project: Historical Industrial Architecture and Conflicting Objectives of Urban Development, Creative Industries and Architectural Production. The work forms a major part of the Habilitation of the applicant, and will be published as such.
