The Room as a Starting Point in Architectural Design: Childhood Memory and the Formation of Spatial Understanding
This paper portrays the room as the fundamental beginning of architecture, exploring how our earliest spatial memories shape the way we perceive and understand architectural space. Drawing on Louis Kahn's philosophical reflections on the room as architecture's elemental unit, the insights of Peter…

Numerical Modeling of Tunnel Excavation and Support Using the Deconfinement Method for Static and Seismic Conditions
In this paper, an analysis of the phase construction of a tunnel with support in static and seismic conditions is made. The PLAXIS 2D software package was used for the problem's numerical modelling. A parametric analysis of the excavation using the deconfinement method (1-ß) was made on an actual…

The Effect of Masonry Infill Model Selection on the Seismic Response of Reinforced Concrete Frame Structures
In many countries, reinforced concrete (RC) frames are widely utilized as the primary building structure. The infill is typically composed of traditional masonry (brick elements connected with mortar), commonly without isolation from the frame. It is noted that in engineering practice, seismic…

Origami-Inspired Kinetic Facades: Approaches, Materials, and Technologies
The traditional role of the façade, historically centered on providing protection against environmental conditions and reducing CO₂ emissions, has been significantly redefined through advances in software technologies and material sciences. These developments have led to the emergence of the façade…
