Future-proof
was built to accommodate two additional levels if needed, with tall elevator shafts and knockout panels for future windows. Future-proofing (also futureproofing) is the process of anticipating the future and developing methods of minimizing the effects of shocks and stresses of future events. Future-proofing is used in industries such as infrastructure development, electronics, medical industry, industrial design, law, and more recently, in design for climate change. The principles of future-proofing are extracted from other industries and codified as a system for approaching an intervention in a historic building.
