RENOVATION MANAGEMENT FOR ADAPTABILITY AND DISASSEMBLY ENHANCEMENT

Objective

REMADE proposes a neighbourhood-centred Renovation-as-a-Service (RaaS) model that combines design for adaptability and disassembly (DfAD), advanced digital tools and co-created interventions to transform how renovation is conceived, delivered and financed in Europe. The project develops prefabricated DfAD-based modular elements for facades and internal partitions, integrating energy-efficient technologies that can be rapidly installed, reconfigured and disassembled with minimal disruption for users.

These solutions are supported by a cloud-based, AI-enabled renovation platform using BIM, digital twins, IoT sensors, enable material inventory and cloud-controlled LCA/LCC. The platform supports smart construction process planning and monitoring, in and post project energy consumption control, documenting building transformations to enable future adaptation and reuse.

REMADE couples this technological backbone with participatory action research, co-design and social sciences expertise to embed neighbourhood needs, cultural and historical practices into renovation strategies. Inhabitants, municipalities, social housing providers, SMEs and cultural actors co-define interventions, validate designs and monitor outcomes in four diverse demonstration sites.

Economically, REMADE develops and tests new circular business models and funding logics: performance-based contracts, modular product-service systems, leasing schemes, and neighbourhood-scale material banks. These are designed to be attractive for investors, insurers and public authorities by reducing risk through high-fidelity data, standardised contracts and transparent impact metrics.

By delivering replicable methods, tools and business models, REMADE aims to demonstrate measurable reductions in lifecycle carbon, waste and cost, while improving comfort, health, equity and quality of place, that support the NEB and EU Renovation Wave in reshaping buildings and neighbourhoods towards inclusive and beautiful futures.
