Its main fields of research are history of architecture and representation.  They share architecture and the city as a common domain to pursue analysis and research.
History spans its interests from artistic aspects to design and building developments as well as urban and environmental mutations.
Representation, by means of its scientific background and by means of sedimentation on surveying and cad, establishes itself as a special tool to verify both analysis and knowledge dissemination.
