Research Themes

My research themes are concentrated on defining the vocabulary and grammars of the local Architecture language, adopted as a theme of design by making use of perception laws in re-calling architectural vocabulary saved in the deep mental data storage to create an Environment Friend Architecture that can communicate with the audience. These themes may cover the fields of history and theory of architecture, cultural and built heritage, sustainable preservation and revitalisation
