Eco-Architecture 2018

The objective of this Conference is to review the challenges and new opportunities of contemporary architecture. These are a result of advances in design and new building technologies, as well as the development of new materials.

Many of the changes are motivated by a drive towards eco-architecture, trying to harmonise architectural products with nature. Another important issue is the adaptation of the architectural design to the natural environment, learning from nature and traditional construction techniques.

Contemporary architecture is at the threshold of a new stage of evolution, deeply influenced by the advances in information and computer systems and the development of new materials and products, as well as construction processes that will drastically change the industry.

The topics to be presented at Eco-Architecture 2018 are to be Energy efficiency, New building technologies, Computer aided design and Robotics and artificial intelligence among others. Papers on other topics related to the objectives of the conference are also welcome.
