From 5-9 July 2027, Politecnico di Milano will proudly host the 7th International Conference on Structures and Architecture (ICSA2027) - the largest conference at the intersection of structural engineering and architectural design.

This major event will be organised with IASA, The International Association of Structures and Architecture and hosted as an interdisciplinary collaboration across three departments at Polimi, headed by AS Lab head Prof Iuorio:

  • DABC: Department of Architecture, Built Environment and Construction Engineering
  • DASTU: Department of Architecture and Urban Studies
  • DICA: Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering

This conference promotes a collaborative future between Structures and Architecture. We invite you to explore the logic of construction in relation to Architectural Design and, recognising the urgent need to address global environmental challenges, we invite you to reflect on Circular+ approaches, exploring how architectural and structural design processes can embed circularity, regenerative strategies, and integrate life cycle thinking, to shape and reshape our built environment.

We invite researchers, practitioners, and innovators to share research, projects, and ideas that advance sustainable, circular, and adaptive architectural practices. Contributions may include experiences and investigations in design methodologies, construction techniques, material innovations, or interdisciplinary approaches that push the boundaries of how structures and architecture are jointly conceived, built, tackled, and maintained.
