Saltaire, ville-usine modèle du Nord de l’Angleterre : un objet urbain à part entière entre permanence et mutation

Saltaire, a model industrial town in northern England, exemplifies the transition from paternalistic urban planning to cultural revitalization. Originally designed as a self-contained textile village with a grid layout and harmonious architecture, Saltaire has evolved since its factory closure into a symbol of adaptive reuse, blending conservation with modern cultural purposes. This study highlights how Saltaire’s preservation efforts—rooted in its historical significance—have successfully reinvented it within a dynamic urban landscape, offering lessons for heritage-led regeneration worldwide.
