Retrofit and remodeling, thereby, became important. The purpose of the research in to examine a reused space with new function. The target space was the former slaughterhouse in the ailing district of the Bologna City with ever increasing vandalism and fear caused by empty buildings, which was regenerated into a culturally affluent area, such as cultural facilities including cinema, gallery, art school cluster along with elderly club and child care center nearby. Through this regeneration, more affluent life opportunity was provided for citizens and local residents. This case study shows how old the building and interior space have been transformed to accommodate contemporary needs, while preserving historical features.
