Within my Ph.D. program activities at the Universita' Politecnica Delle Marche, I will be co-teaching the 4th year course "Architectural Design for the Enhancement and Conservation of the Architectural Heritage." This year's theme will be the re-qualification of an industrial area in Mina Zayed, Abu Dhabi. We will start next week with two exciting lectures. The first one given by Prof. Apostolos Kyriazis will be about the existing context; in the second one, a freshly graduated student from Abu Dhabi University will present her thesis project supervised by Prof. Basem Eid Mohamed.
