The Faculty of Architecture, Bialystok University of Technology invites researchers and scholars from diverse disciplines to the 2nd International Conference on Digital Architectural Research - DARe. If you're engaged in architectural computing, civil engineering, structural or environmental design, this is an event to mark on your calendar.
DARe 2025 is all about creating a platform to exchange ideas and experiences across intersecting fields. While we’re keen to spotlight PhD candidates—whose fresh ideas drive innovation—we also welcome experienced academics. The mix of new and experienced voices creates an inspiring environment for sharing insights and sparking collaboration - as the 1st DARe conference proved. Digital media and computation are transforming architecture at every stage, from sketches to construction. They shape both physical structures and purely digital spaces, offering an exciting playground for exploration. We can’t wait to see the ideas you bring. This year’s conference will emphasize multidisciplinary approaches. Architecture thrives on collaboration, and we aim to highlight intersections with civil and structural engineering, material science, and environmental design. By connecting these fields, we can uncover new solutions to sustainability, resilience, and design challenges. Critical reflection on the influence of digital tools is essential. DARe isn’t just about showcasing technology—it’s about debating its impact. How does computation reshape design theory? How do evolving tools influence architectural education and the built environment? Bring your passion, whether it’s theoretical or practical. Doctoral research thrives on breaking boundaries and redefining knowledge. DARe is the space to challenge norms and test new ideas. PhD candidates are encouraged to present their work and engage in discussions that might just lead to their next breakthrough. And if you’re not a PhD student? Your insights are still invaluable—sometimes an outside perspective is what’s needed. To support emerging researchers, the first 16 PhD candidates who will have their abstracts accepted, will receive scholarships refunding travel and subsistence costs. Scholarships will be funded by the Polish National Agency for Academic Exchange (NAWA). We believe in your work and want to help you share it. Accepted papers will be published in a dedicated monograph, ensuring lasting visibility in the academic community. We hope this publication will reflect the spirit of innovation and collaboration at DARe. We look forward to welcoming you to Bialystok for what promises to be an engaging and inspiring event!
