The main areas of this research field are the consolidation of architecture and engineering
sciences and the influence of environmental disciplines on the development of architecture within the paradigm shift of resource saving and sustainability.
The aim of the field is to promote scientific research in architecture and design to explore the aspects of creating the physical environment, combining it with media artists simulation and modifying models in the virtual environment, as well as to analyse the economic interests of market participants.
Studies on the history of urban planning and architecture in the twentieth century not only serve as reference material for future researchers but also as guidelines for correcting future mistakes.
Within the framework of the field, the joint scientific journal ADAM Arts is published, scientific conferences are held, the annual scientific conference in architecture and design RIXARCH is implemented, publications for internationally recognised magazines and leading professionally orientated media are developed.
