Cool is Everywhere

Equal parts design inspiration and travelogue, this book highlights the rapidly growing adaptive reuse movement

From the author and photographer of Design Brooklyn and Detroit: The Dream Is Now comes Design. Renew. Reuse. a photographic survey of the adaptive reuse design movement in America’s coolest cities. These cities’ and towns’ residents are rethinking the usage of available architecture and repurposing it. They’re turning department stores into hip hotels, parking garages into swanky cocktail bars, and old mills into cutting-edge galleries. This movement has brought about results that are as surprising as they are inspiring. Organized by city, Design. Renew. Reuse. highlights remarkable projects that have transformed ordinary buildings into works of art.
