The Institute of Architecture and Urbanism of Blida 1 university is pleased to invite you to participate in the first conference entitled “Quality of Architectural and Urban Atmospheres: Theories and Application”, which will be held in Blida on 7 October 2023. This conference aims to provide a platform to present recent research as well as key findings around issues of multisensory quality in architectural and urban spaces and to exchange experiences and ideas. A wide range of topics will be addressed in this event by researchers, specialists and students through preliminary speeches, presentations, and a poster session.
This will be an opportunity to raise awareness and promote the importance of multisensory design in urban and architectural spaces, with the aim of improving the quality of life. We invite you to send your Abstract before June 20, 2023 to benefit from this meeting by interacting with your colleagues from different specialties. We hope to see you in Blida
