dc.subjectThis thesis examines how the adaptive reuse of active churches as weekday cafés in London contributes to spatial reclamation, transforming underused religious spaces into accessible, multifunctional public places. It focuses on two case studies: Host Café and Wren Coffee, both of which retain religious services while serving as cafés during the week. The research introduces a conceptual framework based on three pillars: social inclusivity, heritage conservation, and hybrid space creation.
