Slow architecture

Slow Architecture is building a building slowly and gradually

as opposed to building it all at once.The resulting building

usually is far more cost efficient than that of a traditional

building.Governments and companies can use this building

method to cut down on costs.

The term Slow Architecture is also used in a broader context,

not limited to one building.'The use of the characteristics of

the existing will maintain a strong bond between a building,

its environment and society. The present environment is the

result of a string of aspects that

together keep the process alive of which the present is the result.

The use of the context will make it possible to maintain local

traditions in building and create unique images. Not to preserve

history, but to give new developments a place in a continuous

proceeding process.'
