The captivating realms of utopian cities and sacred architecture unveil a fascinating narrative of human ingenuity and aspiration. Utopian cities are canvases where dreams of harmonious living are painted, while sacred architecture is the majestic brushstrokes that bring spiritual beliefs to life. These concepts aren't mere constructs; they're living expressions of our desire for spaces that transcend the ordinary, creating environments that resonate with the very essence of what it means to be human.
As we stroll through the corridors of history, we find that utopian cities and sacred architecture have been the architects of civilizations, shaping the very essence of cultural identity. Utopian ideals have left their mark on the urban landscape, influencing how societies are governed, how people interact, and how cities are planned. Meanwhile, sacred architecture has stood as a testament to human creativity, embodying the beliefs and values that have defined different eras. From the majestic temples of ancient times to the intricate cathedrals of the medieval era, these structures whisper stories of transcendence and human expression.
In the contemporary landscape, the fusion of utopian cities and sacred architecture plays a pivotal role in meeting our spiritual and environmental aspirations. Once confined to religious contexts, sacred spaces now serve as modern sanctuaries, while utopian cities have evolved into sustainable visions, seamlessly blending urban environments with nature. Envision a future where cities not only address present needs but also embody ecological harmony, safeguarding the planet for generations. This evolving paradigm expands the spiritual significance of sacred architecture, intertwining with a broader quest for meaning, while environmentally conscious utopian civilizations inspire societies to thrive in harmony with nature. It's a call to action—a blend of dreams and sustainability—where utopian cities and sacred architecture converge to resonate with our deepest human desires and the evolving needs of our world.
We are thrilled to announce the fourth edition of the Utopian and Sacred Architecture Studies conference, a collaborative forum for thought leaders, researchers, and professionals in the fields of utopian and sacred architecture. Following the success of its inaugural counterpart, this edition aims to deepen discussions, welcoming diverse perspectives to broaden the discourse.
The Utopian and Sacred Architecture Studies aims to unite professionals, researchers, and enthusiasts from architecture, cultural studies, history, and environmental sciences. It serves as a dynamic platform fostering collaboration, idea exchange, and addressing contemporary challenges at the crossroads of these diverse fields. Topics range from architectural design evolution to sustainable urban planning and the intersectionality of history, spirituality, and modern environmental considerations. Join us in this stimulating experience, where shared insights flourish, and new horizons in interdisciplinary domains are collectively envisioned.
The USAS conference serves as a platform for scholars, researchers, and practitioners to explore and advance the understanding of utopian visions and sacred architecture. Our purpose is to foster a collaborative environment where diverse perspectives converge, stimulating insightful discussions and innovative ideas. Through engaging presentations, interactive sessions, and interdisciplinary exchanges, we aim to enrich the discourse on the historical, cultural, and spiritual dimensions of utopian and sacred spaces. By bringing together experts and enthusiasts, our conference seeks to contribute to the evolution of architectural narratives, shaping a more profound and sustainable future for the built environment.

About the ASTI series
Advances in Science, Technology & Innovation (ASTI) is a series of peer-reviewed books based on important emerging research that redefines the current disciplinary boundaries in science, technology and innovation (STI) in order to develop integrated concepts for sustainable development. It not only discusses the progress made towards securing more resources, allocating smarter solutions, and rebalancing the relationship between nature and people, but also provides in-depth insights from comprehensive research that addresses the 17 sustainable development goals (SDGs) as set out by the UN for 2030.
The series draws on the best research papers from various IEREK and other international conferences to promote the creation and development of viable solutions for a sustainable future and a positive societal transformation with the help of integrated and innovative science-based approaches. Including interdisciplinary contributions, it presents innovative approaches and highlights how they can best support both economic and sustainable development, through better use of data, more effective institutions, and global, local and individual action, for the welfare of all societies.
The series particularly features conceptual and empirical contributions from various interrelated fields of science, technology and innovation, with an emphasis on digital transformation, that focus on providing practical solutions to ensure food, water and energy security to achieve the SDGs. It also presents new case studies offering concrete examples of how to resolve sustainable urbanization and environmental issues in different regions of the world.
The series is intended for professionals in research and teaching, consultancies and industry, and government and international organizations. Published in collaboration with IEREK, the Springer ASTI series will acquaint readers with essential new studies in STI for sustainable development.

The first version of the International Conference on Utopian & Sacred Architecture Studies (USAS) was held from 11 -13 June 2019 in association with Universita degli Studi della Campania Luigi Vanvitelli. The conference included many discussions that covered extremely important topics and presented theories and practices stimulated over the last five centuries in a wide range of scientific areas such as historiography, political science as well as literary and art studies. It was a very successful conference.
The Conference was held in one of the most spiritual cities –the city of Aversa –, one that contains a real-life model of sacred architecture and spiritual buildings.
The conference was held under the patronage of Prof. Claudio Gambardella (Chairman - Department of Architecture and Industrial Design, Univ. degli Studi della Campania "Luigi Vanvitelli", Prof. Ferdinando Trapani - National Coordinator of the agreement "IEREK" - Inter - University Network- Department of Architecture, Universita degli Studi di Palermo, Prof. Rosanna Cioffi - Pro- Rector to Culture - Universita degli Studi della Campania Luigi Vanvitelli, Prof. Luigi Maffei Director of Dadi - Department of Architecture and Industrial Design.
Similarly, reputable figures took part such as Prof. Galal Abada, IEREK’s representative, Prof. Paolo Giordano Ph.D. Coordinator of the DADI - Department of Architecture and Industrial Design in the Universita degli Studi della Campania "Luigi Vanvitelli", Luca Molinari editorial director of Platform Magazine - Department of Architecture and Industrial Design.
The conference received 73 paper submissions that were discussed over 12 sessions.
