All research programs conducted within the Department are developed in response to environmental problems, demographic changes, and the challenges arising from urban development. Through research projects, we address current issues and significant needs that the contemporary world faces. In our explorations, we utilize the potential of developing technologies and often work in international, interdisciplinary teams. We examine urban and architectural possibilities related to the transformation of post-industrial areas and engage in developing creative solutions for the reuse of historical structures based on the concept of adaptive re-use. We develop concepts for architecture and urban spaces related to water and work on improving the quality of public spaces at the land-water interface. The issue of healthy aging and the well-being of elderly people is another important factor influencing our research. In response to demographic changes and migration patterns, we are developing new research pathways focused on contributing to the improvement of life quality in multicultural cities and promoting social inclusion. We creatively work on expanding both scientific methodologies and professional architectural techniques, enriching them with innovative computational tools and new manufacturing methods. The use of advanced technological methods enables us to create innovative spatial concepts and engineering solutions.
