About the Journal
VOID
Journal of Vernacular, Open Space, Innovation, and Design
 

VOID is a peer-reviewed scientific journal dedicated to the advancement of architecture and the built environment through studies on vernacular values, open space, innovation, and design.

Journal Overview

Journal of Vernacular, Open Space, Innovation, and Design (VOID) is a scholarly journal that publishes original research articles, conceptual studies, design-based studies, case studies, and critical reviews in the field of architecture and the built environment. The journal provides an academic platform for researchers, lecturers, practitioners, postgraduate students, and professionals to disseminate knowledge related to spatial studies, architectural design, local wisdom, sustainability, and innovation.

The name VOID reflects both an architectural concept and a scholarly mission. In architecture, a void refers to empty space, spatial gaps, or intervals within buildings and environments. In academic publishing, VOID represents knowledge gaps that can be explored, questioned, and filled through rigorous, contextual, and original research.

Scope

The journal focuses on architecture, vernacular studies, open space, urban design, housing and settlement, interior design, building science, heritage, tropical architecture, sustainable design, disaster-responsive architecture, and digital architecture.
