  4. Abstract:
  5. Adaptive Reuse is a relatively new approach that aims to restore the relationship between humans and nature by providing a set of concepts and methods that lead to a sustainable interaction between the two. While the ecological approach is one of the most well-known sustainability sciences, it only considers the physical aspects of the relationship between humans and nature and does not account for its semantic dimensions. This research seeks to answer the question of which approach is most effective in establishing a stable relationship between humans and the environment. To achieve this, this article examines the theoretical foundations of Adaptive Reuse and the pathology of the relationship between humans and nature in the science of ecology. It creates a comparison between the way of explaining this relationship in the landscape approach and the ecology approach, evaluating both attitudes with an analytical-descriptive method based on content and structure criticism. The findings of this research suggest that the ecological approach is not comprehensive in expressing all aspects of sustainability for Adaptive Reuse. Due to its theoretical foundations, it is only able to describe and provide solutions for the objective aspects of the human-environment relationship. However, it is acknowledged that this relationship also takes place in another dimension influenced by the perception process between these two components. On the other hand, the landscape approach provides a simultaneous explanation of both physical and semantic dimensions of the relationship between humans and the environment. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2024
