Use of innovative digital laboratories to train a new generation of architects: integration of education, practice and research for digital cultural heritage

In this article, the authors outline the potential of using innovative digital laboratories to train a new generation of architects. The evolving built environment and technology continuously challenge architectural educators to take an innovative approach to better understand, preserve and protect the architectural heritage, and ensure development toward a sustainable and green economy. One of those approaches is a methodology based on the integration of education, practice and research on digital cultural heritage (CH) in the form of an alliance of laboratories as a cross-border hub for sustainable development and cultural heritage preservation. The article is focused on the case of three laboratories from Poland and Italy: DAda Lab - UNIPV, Pavia; DAB Lab - Gdańsk Tech; and DARWIN Lab - UNIFI, Florence, which, using common methods, tools and activities, combine practice and research with education of architects and engineers. Through the joint implementation of various European CH projects, the laboratories engage their resources and students in hands-on activities, providing opportunities to experiment with new tools and forms of research-oriented education.
