Journal of Technology in Architecture, Design and Planning (JTADP) aims to contribute to the knowledge in the fields of architecture, design and planning with a focus on technology dimension. It is an open-access, peer-reviewed and scholarly journal published biannually in May and November. In order to expand the boundaries of knowledge in these fields and provide an international forum for the interchange of information and current issues from around the world, JTADP publishes double blind refereed articles on practice and progress regarding the fields; these include research articles, review articles, reviews of projects and case studies. Subjects covered by JTADP include, but are not limited to: Architectural engineering, design engineering, urban enginnering.

Technology is defined as a process that covers the transformation and use of basic and applied sciences’ data into production within creative processes and the analysis of their social effects. Hence, technology naturally constitutes the essence of architecture, design and planning actions.

The fact that technology takes place as a process in all kinds of design activities emphasizes the organic and inseparable unity of the three aforementioned fields and their sub-titles with technology. Technology, and therefore architecture, design and planning, is a combination of creativity and intelligence with science, art, engineering, economics and social studies in order to increase the quality of human life. The point that should be noted here is that technology is not only related to science and engineering, but also a reflection of fields such as art, sociology, psychology and economics.

Based on the fact that the technology dimension is not adequately addressed in scientific publications in the fields of architecture, design and planning, it has been decided that JTADP will focus on these issues. Moreover, JTADP aims to explore the interface between design, architecture, planning and their practical applications.
