EDITORS’ NOTES ARCHITECTURAL RESEARCH AND SUSTAINABILITY AS OVERALL CHALLENGE

Other text in scientific journal, 2024

This mixed issue presents three scientific articles, one academic essay, one PhD thesis review by Dr. Leif Östman, and one book review by Dr. Marius Fiskevold. All four scientific contributions in the issue are characterized by a certain understanding of architecture knowledge and expound in different ways on the need for sustainability in architecture, landscape architecture, and urban design. The concept is very broad. Sustainable design stands out as a global challenge for architecture as discipline, research field, academic program, practice, and profession. At the Nordic Journal of Architectural Research, our contribution is to broadly distribute architecture knowledge by peer-reviewing and publishing architectural research.
