Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on architectural and urban planning research, with a particular emphasis on sustainable development, heritage preservation, and the impact of technology on the built environment. Studies investigate the lived experiences of residents in reconstructed or aging urban areas, the role of contemporary technologies in shaping future housing, and methods for preserving cultural heritage through digital techniques. The journal also explores urban branding, placemaking, the influence of street network configuration on land use, and the integration of smart technologies in buildings and neighborhoods. Ethical considerations in sustainable architecture and the application of game design principles in educational environments are also examined.
