Unfortunately not every project makes it off the drawing board (or monitor!) but here's a few reasons why they are still of value:

Exploration - Early project phases allow us to explore new ideas and responses to a site that may inform later projects in the same context.

Education - Analysing why a project wasn't realised can reveal challenges and constraints that can be useful for future projects.

Inspiration - Elements from unbuilt projects can inspire future designs with ideas and concepts being revisited and incorporated into new contexts.
