Abstract
The last few decades have seen architecture respond to environmental, social, political, economic and cultural factors that have profoundly influenced design and investment. Identifying and understanding these design and investment interconnections may bring quality to projects and achieve sustainability outcomes. Challenging the context and conditions of professional activity in architecture has opened a worldwide discussion on architectural education and pedagogy. A shared consciousness sees architectural education across the world acquire more experimental ideas and transdisciplinary approach to teaching. Hence, project-based learning and more recently virtual knowledge transfer have become part of the mainstream teaching concepts. In this article, the author presents an online teaching workshop focused on architectural interventions in heritage sites located in different cultural environments. Teams of students under the supervision of tutors in Kraków, Poland, and Jerusalem, Israel, will elaborate designs that take into account the history, context and specificity of the locations. A pilot study undertaken in Kraków, Poland, demonstrates the usefulness of the proposed workshop.
