In How Buildings Learn, Stewart Brand cites the example of Palazzo Pubblico in Siena as a building that was constructed in sections over 500 years, eventually evolving to its present state, and which continues to be renovated and remodeled as required by its users.

How Buildings Learn: What Happens After They're Built is an illustrated book on the evolution of buildings and how buildings adapt to changing requirements over long periods. It was written by Stewart Brand and published by Viking Press in 1994. In 1997 it was turned into a 6-part TV series on the BBC.
