Adapting existing spaces for new purposes: Overcoming constraints using alternative plumbing solutions

As urban spaces continue to evolve, adapting existing buildings for new purposes has become vital to meeting diverse needs—whether it is converting offices into residential units or repurposing a retail space into a childcare centre.
