Handbooks and atlases of adaptive reuse predominantly discuss and illustrate architectural examples in a case study format with a practice-focused approach. However, examining reused buildings collectively rather than individually prompts critical attention to what is already in the urban fabric and cultivates a care-based approach to built heritage in response to the changing face of architectural practice focused more and more on transformation. Operating with a research-based approach, the Traces, Transformations, and Disappearances course suggests digging into the city of Ankara as an experimental archive of adaptive reuse. Students are engaged in acts of tracing, mapping, and indexing to form a collective archive of reused buildings by navigating through sites, archives, design practices, memories, and ephemera. This research study situated in the very city that the students live in opens the possibility of experiencing existing buildings in their post-reuse periods. It thus expands the understanding of adaptive reuse not as a design intervention but as a process by fostering a comprehensive assessment of sustainability.
