A Balcony Solarium for Building Renovations

How to approach renovation needs of existing building stock?

Existing building stock is an essential part of “national property” in all countries. Therefor it’s quite important to make the best decisions on how to treat existing property in a rational way in various situations. Housing blocks from, say 60’s and 70’ are often technically outdated, and need for repair is obvious. But what to do? Demolish the building? Get the needed and critical technical renovation work done? Give the building a “New Life” giving it a facelift?
