Summary

The goal of the International Conference PLEA 2013 is to promote the discussion on holistic, quality-based approaches to future challenges in architecture and planning. Within the conference we want to concentrate on the quality of buildings and neighbourhoods, and the quality of life of their inhabitants, as well as the liveability of our cities.

The International Conference PLEA 2013 invited scientists, planners, architects, engineers, stakeholders, entrepreneuers and students from around the world to present and discuss innovative approaches and future developments for new buildings as well as for the existing building stock.
