Dr Sally Stone is the Professor of Adaptive Reuse and Innovative Pedagogies at the Manchester School of Architecture. Her work explores sustainable adaptation, issues of heritage, the history of adaptation, and the disconnected yet similar approaches that artist and architects take to the existing built environment. She is the author of Inside Information (RIBA Publications 2021), UnDoing Buildings (Routledge, 2019), ReReadings Volumes 1 +2 (RIBA Publications, 2004, 2018), and Emerging Practices in Pedagogy (Routledge, 2021).

Sally is the leader of the MA Architecture and Adaptive Reuse programme at the Manchester School of Architecture.

PhD applications from students who have an interest in Adaptive Reuse, Interiors, Interventions within the Historic Built Environment, and the Future of the Already Built are welcomed.
