In the editorial of the new issue of Domus, guest editor Tadao Ando explains how the conservation of architectural works is not only a necessity, but also a creative means. This essay by the Japanese architect is followed by two more, both dedicated to the main themes of this issue: in his piece, Pierre-Antoine Gatier explains the practice of restoration by respecting the originality of the works. Massimo Faiferri talks about the projects of Lacation & Vassal Architectes, awarded this year with the Pritzker Prize and known for their renovations sensitive to the authenticity of the spaces.
