Recurring Elements of Modern Facades (1960–1990). Foundations for the Conservation of High-Tech Modernism.

High-Tech architecture made use of standardized, serial components whose characteristics were meticulously described in technical specifications. The scope of this historic information is almost unmanageable, the analogue sources are increasingly difficult to access. The challenge of quantity is mirrored by the scale of the built structures, constraining the possibilities of thorough building investigation. As a result, these building elements are often replaced during renovation before they could be acknowledged, evaluated, and possibly preserved.
