@misc{12670, abstract = {{This systematic literature review critically examines the application of digital technologies in architectural heritage risk management from 2014 to 2024, focusing exclusively on English-language publications. As the significance of architectural heritage continues to be recognized globally, there is an increasing shift towards integrating digital solutions to ensure its preservation and management. This paper explores the evolution and application of digital technologies such as Building Information Modeling (BIM), Geographic Information Systems (GIS), and advanced imaging techniques within the field. It highlights how these technologies have facilitated the non-destructive evaluation of heritage sites and enhanced accessibility and interaction through virtual and augmented reality applications. By synthesizing data from various case studies and scholarly articles, the review identifies current trends and the expanding scope of digital interventions in heritage conservation. It discusses the interplay between traditional conservation approaches and modern technological solutions, providing insights into their complementary roles. The analysis also addresses the challenges and limitations encountered in the digital preservation of architectural heritage, such as data integration, the compatibility of different technologies, and the need for more comprehensive frameworks to guide the implementation of digital tools in heritage conservation practices. Ultimately, this review underscores the transformative impact of digital technology in managing architectural heritage risks, suggesting directions for future research and the potential for innovative applications in the field.}}, author = {{Yu, Yingwen and Raed, Abeer Abu and Peng, Yuyang and Pottgiesser, Uta and Verbree, Edward and van Oosterom, Peter}}, booktitle = {{npj Heritage Science}}, issn = {{3059-3220}}, keywords = {{Heritage & Architecture, Landscape Architecture, Digital Technologies}}, number = {{1}}, publisher = {{Springer Science and Business Media LLC}}, title = {{{How digital technologies have been applied for architectural heritage risk management: a systemic literature review from 2014 to 2024}}}, doi = {{10.1038/s40494-025-01558-5}}, volume = {{13}}, year = {{2025}}, } @book{12673, abstract = {{Many African countries are home to extraordinary architecture that is virtually unknown.

The primary goal of the research at KI.BAU is to transform architecture into an intelligent, to some degree self-sustaining, self-reflective and maybe even evolving ‘ecological system’.

The existing structure is strategically reduced to its essential load-bearing concrete frame and floor slabs, preserving the structural skeleton while enabling radical spatial reconfiguration. Prefabricated timber modules are inserted and cantilevered between the reinforced-concrete columns, extending the usable floor area and introducing a warm, contemporary material contrast to the original façade. This intervention not only increases density and flexibility but also redefines the tower’s appearance, giving it a cosmopolitan and forward-looking architectural identity. The ground floor is conceived as an open and publicly accessible urban platform, activating the surrounding plaza and strengthening social interaction. Upper floors are redesigned as affordable and attractive living spaces for young residents, encouraging a diverse and vibrant community within the building. A newly designed park-like rooftop landscape provides recreational space and panoramic views over the city, enhancing environmental quality and urban connectivity.
