On 20 and 21 May 2019, the InnoRenew CoE and the University of Primorska hosted Asst. Prof. Dr Ayşe Esin Kuleli from the Antalya Bilim University (ABU) Department of Architecture. The main courses in the department focus on design studios, sustainability, buildings and materials, presentation techniques and urban design. The ABU Department of Architecture aims to educate architects who will be able to raise awareness about the built environment and design innovative projects.

Dr Kuleli came to Koper under the Erasmus+ Programme for Staff Teaching Mobility. As a member of ABU’s Faculty of Fine Arts and Architecture, she specialises in conservation of architecture and culturally significant structures.

The InnoRenew CoE researchers had the pleasure of attending her lecture on methodologies used in assessing cultural heritage sites, phases of conservation and case studies involving her research and students.
