The main goal of LAB 01 research is the area of contemporary aesthetic conceptions as well as the recognition of their importance in the study of socio-cultural conditions of the latest trends in architecture. The variability and transformation of the reading of the aesthetic values of architecture through its socio-cultural determination, whether historical or contemporary, are studied in particular. This approach implies the application of the process of critical analysis of the value of contemporary concepts in architecture, but also other important issues that contribute to a broader scientific and creative approach to action in the field of architecture, as well as its connection with the overall visual artistic activity of the contemporary era. At the same time, the context of the comparative analysis of examples belonging to different cultural matrices is underlined, which indicates the importance of the transcultural aesthetic context of contemporary architectural practice. Our vision is to create links between the humanities, social sciences, and technical sciences through multidisciplinary, interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary research of architecture, art, applied arts and other related disciplines.

Within the framework of the Morpho-lab, the key morphological characteristics of urban spaces will be considered, as well as their interdependence with functional characteristics and the cultural context in which they are located. Morphological features will be discussed typologically, based on the key features for their understanding. The overall phenomenon of the city’s structure will be observed morphogenetically, that is, as part of the historical continuity of its origin, development and changes over time and at different spatial levels. The goal of the laboratory relates to the harmonization of research with the modern trends in the development of the discipline in the world, emphasizing the multidisciplinary approach to contemporary topics that deal with the phenomena of morphology and typology of urban spaces.

The research laboratory Heritage of Modernism aims to develop different perspectives of research and critical assessment of modernist heritage’s role, significance and potential (protection, promotion, revitalization, transformation, design, etc.). Through engagement in the laboratory, and presentation/ publication of results in relevant scientific publications, conferences and exhibitions, the goal is to ensure teamwork on specific applied research with an understanding of the specific sociopolitical, cultural and economic context. In achieving the stated goals, the following are of particular importance: 1) involving students in current, as well as in the development and implementation of new research projects and other research formats in the field of the heritage of modernism, 2) cooperation with other institutions in the field of education and culture (universities, events, galleries, museums, archives, etc.). In a broader context, the laboratory aims to shed light on the complex relationship and position of modernist heritage in the context of contemporary society, culture and the built environment. In a narrower sense, the special focus of the laboratory is on examining the possibilities of design methodological research tools (research by design) in the academic context of the architectural-urban discourse.

The Laboratory for Planning Culture and Spatial Policy Design (LKPDPP) is an academic platform for critical reflection on the contemporary practice of planning and urban governance in Serbia. Transitional circumstances and the reform of the regulatory framework fundamentally changed the attitude towards the activity of spatial development and opened up space for re-examination of its entire system. The goal of the LKPDPP is to look at the elements of planning culture in Serbia through a comparative perspective and consider ways of professional action. Research topics within the LKPDPP are particularly directed towards the issues of establishing a new planning paradigm in Serbia. The Laboratory for Planning Culture and Spatial Policy Design closely cooperates with the Laboratory for Collaborative Urban Practices on topics from the domain of theory and practice of urban governance.

The Laboratory Architecture and Politics is focused on the study of ideological functions and political roles of architecture in different historical and social contexts. It aims at the critical contextualization and historicization of architecture, seen as ideological practice, society, and political power. Relying on various theoretical approaches — poststructuralist analysis, discourse analysis and cultural studies, the Laboratory is concerned with the duality of interrelationships of architecture and power. On the one hand, architecture is appreciated within institutionalized systems of top-to-bottom hierarchy conceived and imposed by the elites (such as state-power); on the other hand, and more importantly, architecture is comprehended as a fundamental ingredient of capillary-power, which is more fundamental practice of political power. The Laborotory is dedicated to the study of various different roles that architecture, as a system of knowledge, has had in production and distribution of ideological narratives which construct collective identities and social and political subjects in the society.

Modern cities are characterised by: globalisation, networking and information and digital revolution, multiculturalism, migration, the impact of climate change, the rise of individualism and consumerism, the dominance of service sector and the growing importance of culture and tourism in shaping the city’s identity. In accordance with these new trends and new urban concepts and approaches, the goals of the UrbanLAB are: [1] To increase the quality of life in modern city through regeneration, renewal and revitalisation and innovative design of urban space; [2] To improve scientific and professional capacity within the urban design and planning of existing cities through the policies of urban regeneration and renewal, the innovative design of open spaces in city and urban digitisation; [3] To connect the research capabilities of the research unit and the faculty in the field of urban regeneration and renewal and urban design with similar research units, centres and institutions in the country and abroad through scientific projects, initiatives, and networks. New researchers and doctoral students will immediately be involved in the ongoing projects of the laboratory within INTERREG, ERAMUS+, COST, CEEPUS and bilateral research programmes.

The lab investigates the roads in the quest for achieving sustainability. The research aims to answer the global call for climate action and nature conservation, searching for mechanisms and solutions that boost necessary urban paradigm shifts. Current global urban trends can be effectively couped only through the fundamental operational change of all governance levels, primarily local. The experiences indicate that the top-down approach failed in effective urban sustainable policies. There is an invisible boundary of constraints, a gap between the intentions expressed in urban policies and urban practices. By exploring this gap, researchers seek for modus operandi to bridge it. The research implies an integral position of observing the urban realities and co-creative practices that integrate different social structures. The communicative and collaborative methods play a crucial role in enabling the enaction of transdisciplinary, new knowledge and spreading the “seeds” of innovative practices. Taking over the leadership role, researchers act as agents of sustainable transformations. The acquired research knowledge is a basis for improving academic and professional education and practice in architecture and urbanism.

Place branding and urban regeneration are explored through dichotomies of economic commodification and neoliberal transformation of place values, by recognizing cultural identity, people needs and lifestyles, and discovering place values which can be incorporated into place branding strategies, thus enabling economic, social and cultural benefits. The research stance on the assumption that city governments and architects can contribute to the creation and strengthening of unique identity and values of particular places and social processes by using local resources to promote quality of life and achieve competitive advantage. The research reveals how specific identities, narratives, traditions, place and heritage can be capitalized into successful place branding strategy using various urban design and planning instruments for sustainable development and governance in the process of creating additional value in the place. The aforementioned relations explore the possibilities of transposing values and identities into contemporary mainstream urban and architectural design and regeneration of cities.

The Vital Places Lab investigates the relationships between the quality of life in cities and the design of the built environment. Our research is based on an ecological and pluralistic perspective of urban life and on understanding urban space as relational and socially produced. We adopt a multiscalar and interdisciplinary approach to investigate the relationships between man, nature, society, and space in order to identify and examine factors, structures, and processes that contribute to urban vitality, ecosystem health, and human well-being. Special attention is paid to: a) the relationship between urban form and nature, b) the pluralism of the use and meaning of urban space, c) the perception and experience of the built environment, and d) urban revitalization and place-making. The acquired knowledge serves as a basis for improving the educational process and practice in the fields of architecture and urban design in order to create responsible environments that will be better for people, nature, and society.

The laboratory deals with the research of complex relations that are traditionally established in cities between two important social practices: art and urbanism, with special reference to contemporary interdisciplinary artistic, planning and design practices that are realized in contemporary cities and urban life. More precisely, the results of the laboratory are oriented towards researching the relationships that are established and realized between art, public art, city life and the urban environment through defining critical issues of art, i.e. public art, as one of the important components of the urban life and meaning of the city, in order to promote a new model of urban development, capable of integrating all aspects of sustainable development in the promotion of equality, wellbeing and shared prosperity. Accordingly, a special focus is oriented on researching the purpose, possibilities, scope and procedures of using participatory public art in the urban design of open public spaces.

The research laboratory is directed in the sense of responding to the real problematic general condition of rural areas. It aims to direct the reaction of science and profession to concrete artefacts in rural areas by synthesizing the areas that make up architectural-urban activity: intellectual design and methodological realization. These contents of the settlement are in a functional and existential problem, and represent paradigms of unfavorable conditions and tendencies that should be stopped and reversed. The laboratory would investigate the creation of a matrix of action on concrete models in rural settlements, on built-up contents of a predominantly public character. It is about devising an approach to the revitalization of abandoned, unused, and environmentally and structurally valuable closed and open contents, their repurposing, adaptation, rehabilitation and redesign is being considered, with the premeditation of realizing such interventions as a demonstrative example in the spirit of good practice and reputation, for further action in the reconstruction of rural settlements.

Urban oasis presents an attempt to apply scientific methods and new approaches in the realization of architectural projects with elements of energy efficiency, sustainability and contemporary urban design. Through research, the relationship between architecture and greenery in architecture is spatially and programmatically redefined through the implementation of new technological solutions, aesthetics and spatial organization, along with the study of flexibility and adaptability. Elements of vertical greening are part of integrative architectural presentation and are the basis for identifying and solving aesthetic architectural dilemmas and energy potentials of architectural objects. The thematic framework refers to the research of vegetative potential as an element of urban design, treating it as part of the whole process of energy optimization of architectural elements, within which technological development and the development of awareness about the necessity of creating and reducing the use of traditional forms of energy enable the use of the potential of certain urban points.

Research and development in the function of conservation of medieval heritage refers to the policies and strategies of preservation, protection and management of areas marked by rich cultural heritage in Serbia and the wider Region. The issues under consideration concern documenting the condition and registering the extent and limits of changes to the physical environment, the restoration of heritage building in relation to aspects of authenticity and integrity. Recognition and identification of sacred topography for the purpose of sustainable planning and conservation, in the environment of medieval cultural assets that are on the access list or are inscribed on the UNESCO World Cultural and Natural Heritage List, is carried out through reconnaissance of the area, applying a multidisciplinary approach to the matter (humanistic, scientific, technically). The improvement of conservation methodologies is implemented based on the Operational guidelines for the implementation of the World Heritage Convention. Research contributes to the formation of educational programs and the establishment of training and education systems through conferences, workshops, assistance and cooperation with other institutions, publication of results, communication and information.

The formation of the research unit was motivated by the active multi-year cooperation with the Institute for Philosophy and Social Theory of the University of Belgrade, which is reflected in numerous realized research projects. In this sense, the establishment of the lab is the result of the need for this collaboration to receive institutional support from the Faculty of Architecture, which would contribute to the visibility of the aforementioned research at the international and national level. One of the main reasons for the formation of the lab is the initiative of the Institute for Philosophy and Social Theory and DeltaLab (University of Rijeka) to form the international academic journal Khōrein: Journal for Architecture and Philosophy in 2023. The “Architecture as Philosophy” laboratory would, on that track, represent one of the institutional platforms for researching possible connections and relationships between the two disciplines, potentially building on the editorial policy of the aforementioned magazine.

The concept of “urban health” and the role of urban design in the quality promotion of the cities’ living spaces has been present in the international debate for some decades, but only since the publication of the “New Urban Agenda” (WHO 2016), health has been defined as “one of the most effective markers of any city’s sustainable development”. These aspects are beginning to be highly debated on a scientific level, but have not yet been introduced into university education. Moreover, the pandemic emergency we are experiencing imposes even more compelling reflection on the relationship between health and the city, and on the role of university research and education to understand what the city of the future will and should be like. However, a gap between education, scientific research and professional practice hinders the achievement of a seamless collaboration among the different stakeholders involved in the urban regeneration of our cities. Therefore, CliCCHE aims at overcoming these gaps by - promoting a newer fully-integrated transdisciplinary educational methodology and adopting unconventional tools to deal with the effects of climate change on urban health and equity in teaching urban regeneration of European cities. Thanks to this project, EU universities and public administrations can train future experts able to plan interventions to limit climate change effects on health and equity in urban contexts.

HERSUS proposes enhancing and testing innovative teaching practices in the field of sustainability of the built heritage. The project strives to enhance the competence and motivation of educators and researchers to include curricula elements that will have tangible results, preparing students and educators to become real actors of the environmental change. The reason for undertaking HERSUS consortium is based on the recognition that the framework of research, practice, and education in the field of architectural and urban design faces numerous challenges and thematic issues. These issues include social transformation, climate change, globalisation, urbanisation, and housing issues. Above mentioned challenges require vital research and continuous improvement of curricular and extracurricular activities in higher education, which in order to have a successful outcome, must be transnationally carried.
