Smart design and technologies

The issues of the identification, methodological evaluation, registration and protection of cultural heritage and modern architecture in the context of sustainable development are currently among the most topical ones. 

At the same time, architecture, construction and their sustainable development are among the areas with the highest potential for achieving energy savings and reducing the negative impact of human activity on the environment. To achieve a sustainable goal, an informed and coordinated approach to new and historic buildings is essential. 

Architecture and sustainable development thus enter new, often unexpected contexts in the contemporary reality and, therefore, require updated and alternative approaches to development, research and protection.
