关于我们
The AHU_Lab (Architectural Humanities and Urbanism) is a research hub dedicated to the in-depth exploration of architectural humanities and critical urban studies. In our rapidly urbanizing world, probing sustainable architectural practices and understanding urban dynamics is more than academic—it's essential. Architectural humanities offer insights into the intricate relationship between architecture and societal contexts, while critical urban studies give us tools to examine the multifaceted aspects of urbanization. AHU_Lab emphasizes the need to merge knowledge from these domains, integrating theoretical perspectives with practical interventions. AHU_Lab establishes interdisciplinary connections between architecture, urbanism, and culture while shedding light on the influences of global urbanization and sustainable development. By promoting partnerships with national and international academic institutions, universities, research centers, and architectural organizations, AHU_Lab stands as a vanguard for promoting inclusive, multi-disciplinary, and sustainable urban dialogues.
