dc.description.abstractThe research abstracts highlight critical investigations in different thematic areas that include environmental design, culture and architecture, smart building technologies, equity in education, medical facilities, and urban planning strategies. These studies are grounded in the local contexts where the specific issues under inquiry arise. Despite this focus on context, the various studies reflected here are aligned with global architectural trends, aiming to provide practical solutions to real-world issues. Students have explored topics ranging from bioclimatic principles and sustainable resource management to cutting-edge construction technologies, offering insights that contribute to the advancement of architectural knowledge and practice. In addition to the research, the design projects in this book demonstrate a diverse range of architectural concepts and solutions. From public facilities to urban resource centers, these projects showcase innovative design strategies that integrate functionality, aesthetics, and sustainability. The students have employed advanced technologies and materials while maintaining a strong connection to local culture and environmental factors. Together, these works illustrate the potential of the next generation of architects to lead the industry in creating sustainable, resilient, and inspiring spaces that meet the needs of communities today and in the future
