Research Centres and Clusters Individual institutes have chosen to consolidate specific research areas in centres, chairs and clusters, which are often based on permanent collaboration with other institutions, companies and knowledge partners. Subject areaDesignArchitectureConservation InstitutesDesign and Visual InteractionArchitecture and CultureArchitecture and TechnologyArchitecture, Urbanism and LandscapeConservationArchitecture and SpaceDesign, Product and Material Center for Material Studies - CEMAS The Center for Material Studies (CEMAS) is a research environment that explore material phenomena and performances across design scales. Centre for Information Technology and Architecture - CITA Centre for Information Technology and Architecture (CITA) is an innovative research environment exploring the intersections between architecture and digital technologies. Centre for Interior Studies Centre for Interior Studies explores the interior as a hybrid and multifaceted phenomenon, which in addition to its physical, spatial and design related aspects, is also shaped by and shapes social, cultural... Centre for Visibility Design Design meets psychology and IT to better understand visual communication and accessibility. We combine the power of psychophysics with research-by-design methodologies within the three research domains: 1)... Chair for Biohybrid Architecture The Chair for Biohybrid Architecture focuses on exploring and investigating the applied use of weaving and fermentation for creating novel, eco-socially contextualised structures, materials and practices for the... CINARK - Center for Industrialised Architecture Center for Industriel Arkitektur (CINARK) skal styrke uddannelsens og fagets forståelse og udnyttelse af det arkitektoniske potentiale, der ligger i det industrialiserede byggeri og i byggekomponentindustrien. KLOTHING - Centre for Apparel, Textiles & Ecology Research The Centre's purpose is to build up knowledge about how it can contribute to the sustainable development of the clothing and textiles sector,based on specific Danish design traditions and conditions. Architecture, Strategy and Politics This research cluster studies political strategies of architecture, past and present, across scales and expressions, empirically as well as theoretically. Cluster for Architectural Representation The cluster aims at bringing together and making visible the diversity of work within the field of architectural representations. Cluster for Architecture and Health The research cluster for Architecture and Health explores how the physical environment impacts human health. Designing our physical surroundings, so that they facilitate healthy behaviors, can reduce the burden of... Cluster for Artistic Research within Architecture and Design The cluster is a dynamic hub that promotes an interdisciplinary community of designers and architects dedicated to Artistic Research (KUV). Cluster for Housing Research Klyngen har til hensigt at være en platform for boligforskning og Kunstnerisk Udviklingsvirksomhed (KUV) på tværs af arkitekturinstitutterne på Det Kongelige Akademi. Cluster for Spatial Inclusion With Cluster for Spatial Inclusion, we wish to further design ideas and processes that promote inclusion in the built environment. Futuring Design Futuring Design is a research cluster founded by researchers and design educators at the Royal Danish Academy as a network for sharing knowledge and providing research, artistic and strategic development addressing... Light in Architecture and Design The cluster focuses on promoting the understanding of the importance of daylight and artificial light in architecture and design, based on the rich Nordic tradition.
