我们在马萨诸塞大学阿默斯特分校的伊森伯格管理学院扩建了学校现有的 1964 年建筑，从北侧和东侧形成了一个宽阔的环形环路。通过将新旧结合起来，新建筑更新了现有建筑的相关性，以最小的占地面积和与全砖校园融为一体的立面容纳不断扩大的学校项目。加建的上层与现有建筑相连，将教师集中在一个屋檐下。三角形的玻璃入口创造了一个独特的到达点，由级联铜梁的多米诺骨牌效应塑造。其独特的外观造型没有任何弯曲元素：而是包裹在逐渐下降的直立柱中。日光进入手风琴状的柱子之间，照亮多层室内公共空间，供学生聚会和学习、特别活动和颁奖典礼使用。庭院的核心是教室和教师空间之间的绿洲，以及野餐和聚会的新户外空间。

生活中唯一不变的就是变化。随着生命的发展，容纳它的框架也必须如此。每栋建筑最终都被用于其他目的或被拆除，这是不可避免的命运。一座建筑只有一种方法可以永久存在。这不是因为它的材料的耐用性，尽管欧洲西海岸的二战德国掩体已经接近了。但他们也会灭亡。一旦法老王一走，即使是金字塔也沦为废墟。一个结构永远存在的唯一方法是与它的居民保持联系。费雷岛上有一栋木结构的建筑已经存在了一千年——比它所用的任何材料都要长。通过不断地被居住、被爱和被照顾，它占了上风。如果停止使用，对结构的热爱将激发居民为旧框架发明新的用途。
轮回是为旧身体注入新生命的礼物：建筑作为激进的重新诠释。无论建筑师如何仔细地设计一座建筑，它都必须开放，以便在其原始用途不可避免地结束后继续使用。通过扩展空间、添加新结构或改造原有建筑，我们可以使现有结构随着生命的发展而进化。
可以针对不确定性定制新结构，以容纳最大数量的可能程序。它们可以构建为一个物理框架，居民可以下载他们想要的程序，就像我们在 iPhone 上做应用程序一样。作为对未来的礼物，适应性结构允许瞬态元素改变建筑物，通过适应性增加其生存的几率——一座不断适应的建筑，使明天的建筑与昨天的建筑略有不同。建筑作为人类生活的物理平台。
The only constant in life is change. And as life evolves so must the framework that accommodates it. It is the inescapable destiny of every building to be used for another purpose eventually or simply to be torn down. There is only one way for a building to last forever. It is not by the durability of its materials, although the German bunkers from WW2 along Europe’s West Coast come close. But they too will perish. Even the pyramids fall into ruin once the Pharaohs are gone. The only way for a structure to last forever is to remain relevant to its inhabitants. There is a wooden building on the Fare Islands that has persisted for a thousand years—longer than any of the materials it is made from. By being continually inhabited, loved, and cared for, it prevails. And if the use is discontinued, the love for the structure will inspire the inhabitants to invent new uses for the old frames.
Reincarnation is the gift of breathing new life into old bodies: architecture as radical reinterpretation. No matter how careful an architect designs a building to its brief, it must be open to change to remain in use after the inevitable end of its original purpose. By extending spaces, adding new structures, or reincarnating the original building, we can enable existing structures to evolve with life.
New structures can be tailored for indetermination, to accommodate the maximum number of possible programs. They can be built as a physical framework that inhabitants can download their desired programs onto, just as we do apps on our iPhones. As a gift to the future, the adaptive structure allows transient elements to transform the building, increasing its odds for survival through adaptation—a building that constantly adapts so that the building tomorrow is gently different from the building yesterday. Architecture as the physical platform for human life.
