The RAUT journal seeks works that advance the discourses on spatial-related fields from multiple perspectives in various design and planning-related disciplines: architecture, urban planning, landscape, interior, and also humanities and engineering. It is published two times a year, consisting of both guest-edited special issues, as well as open issues. The journal seeks works to communicate and improve empirical knowledge and theoretical understanding of architecture and urban planning in view of global challenges and their local manifestations. This includes the reality of climate change, economic and urban growth, new technologies and societal, political and cultural shifts. Submissions are also invited in the forms of empirical research, desk study, book reviews, projects and exhibitions that are intended to challenge and extend the ideas of architecture and urban planning. This journal also gives special attention to Vernacular Architecture, Post-disaster studies, and Islamic City and Architecture.
