List of architecture dissertation topics
The architecture dissertation takes you on a ride where you are questioning what exists, and you are the one to address and answer what you want to change or architecturally contribute to. While brainstorming the architectural topic, you need to be very composed about your interests and aspirations. In this process, being integral with ongoing living trends and contextual issues will lead you towards making your architecture dissertation relevant and impactful. Here are a few categories to help you choose your design forte and then sink into the hustle and celebrate the phase of your architecture dissertation.
Categories:
- Urban Architecture
- Industrial Architecture
- Public Architecture
- Hospitality Architecture
- Religious Architecture
- Cultural Architecture
- Commercial Architecture
- Healthcare Architecture
- Educational Architecture
- Residential Architecture
As per the categories below is the list of architecture dissertation topics:
1. Co-living Housing ( Residential Architecture )
In the age where earning a living is of more priority than living in families, co-living spaces are here to stay. Co-living housing schemes, not only encourage sharing space, but also sharing culture, social life, and philosophy even across generations. This design topic has the scope of uplifting the work from home culture and offering affordable ideas which respond to the collective lifestyle.
2. Multi-functional Urban Squares ( Urban Architecture )
With the increasing population, the world faces land scarcity and a rise in concrete jungles. But some places have been solving this problem by introducing multi-functional urban squares. Thus, while accommodating urban facilities, this concept also offers recreational facilities. The topic allows fulfilling the urban requirement with shades of green in the cityscape.
3. Mass Rapid Transit System (MRTS) Design (Transportation Architecture)
Urban cities with efficient transit systems develop quickly in terms of technology and economy. Architecture dissertation for mass transit challenges one to dictate movements of city residents through designing it to be less chaotic and more engaging. Along with technological aspects, one can instigate environment-friendly public transport proposals.
4. Waste Management Center ( Industrial Architecture )
An increase in urban population led to an increase in urban waste, which is not treated well in cities. An architecture dissertation in waste management could be a game-changer for rethinking urban environments to be sustainable. It grants exposure to materials that can be recycled or reused and also towards the scale, acoustics, and circulation around the machines installed for waste management.
5. Community Center ( Public Architecture )
Community centers often are the result of the empathetic need in society. Architecture has always amazed society with its contribution to community development. Not only in rural areas but also in the urban vicinity we live requires such centers to address the mental health of urban dwellers. It is a context-driven topic where one can showcase their sensibility towards neglected social issues of any observed region.
6. Redefining Hotels and Resorts (Hospitality Architecture)
Hotel Architecture has been initiated to become the face of the city and reflects nuances of the city culture, history, and style. Hospitality has always been a diverse concept, from greeting to offering meals, and architecture has magnificently contributed to constantly adapting this diversity. This kind of architecture dissertation topic confronts one to be pitch-perfect in the functional planning and circulation of spaces and at the same time create a statement design.
7. Temple Complex of the Future (Religious Architecture)
The temple architecture involves ample customs and traditional beliefs while considering the hierarchy of spaces. Such topics evoke a sense of narration to remodel the temples that will be as captivating in the future as they are today. Hence, to design for the religious activities performed today and fathom the design response of future cohorts is the gap to be bridged.
8. Retracing the Identity of Crematorium (Public Architecture)
The death phenomenon has always been dark and desolate, and crematoriums reflect this with utmost peculiarity. Although, along with time, the idea of death has transformed quite spiritually, and there is a rising need to imprint that intangibility in the tangible space of cremations. This topic challenges to mold human perspectives towards life and death by attempting to retrace them.
9. Eco-Museum (Cultural Architecture)
Lately, museums have evolved in varied typologies from general science-art-history museums to an intervention of Virtual Reality in the museums. However, eco-museums encourage observation and learning of the social, cultural, and natural ties of the place and the people and highlight sensitivity towards the welfare of the ecosystem. This typology of architecture dissertation attempts to connect with the visitors through awareness activities expanding the community distantly.
10. Revitalizing Local Markets (Commercial Architecture)
Markets are a place of constant engagement and community encounters. Analyzing markets post-pandemic, one can sense the need to organize these congestions. Thus, while designing a market, it is essential to adapt to the current needs, achieve a sustainable design, and recreate engagement.
11. Animal Shelter and Veterinary Care ( Healthcare Architecture )
While we are busy designing for our needs, being thoughtful for the ecosystem is equally crucial. The architecture dissertation dedicated to natural life around us apart from fulfilling the never-ending demands of humans’ could direct towards eco-sensitive design. The animal habitats are not something they can compromise on, and when they need to be treated by veterans, they face difficulties with the environment around them.
12. Urban Campus (Educational Architecture)
Urban campus weaves itself into the urban fabric such that the students coming from distant places feel a part of the city. They aim to offer distinctive curricular experiences through providing spaces to learn, work, play, and integrate themselves into fun learning. This topic liberates you to plan a wide range of functional spaces like R&D labs, libraries, cultural areas, cafes, canteens, etc., and integrate themselves to create a vibrant and energetic environment.
13. Reinventing Villages (Residential Architecture)
Rural development scouts to create affordable and sustainable living conditions for the residents. They lead a simple life with contentment and vulnerability towards nature. In response, recreating vernacular housing and providing them with basic amenities like health and sanitation, educational and communal facilities, electricity, and gas supply with proper maintenance could fulfill Gandhiji’s ideal village initiative.
14. Disaster Relief Housing (Residential Architecture)
Disaster Relief calls for emergent architecture during natural calamities or even wars or terror attacks. Such a dissertation topic requires crisp research on building materials that can be prefabricated, recyclable, easily available, and assembled at such times. This topic is not limited to modular buildings and can innovate for concentration camps to resolve the issue.

Beyond LEED: Regenerative Design A symposium at The University of Texas at Austin School of Architecture Friday, January 27th and Saturday, January 28th LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) is the nationally accepted benchmark for the design, construction, and operation of high-performance green buildings. Developed by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC), LEED is a voluntary certification program that provides building owners and operators a framework for identifying and implementing measurable green building design, construction, operations, and maintenance strategies. Its rating systems have been adopted as the standard benchmark for green building, with over 45 states, 442 municipalities, 35 state governments, and 14 federal agencies institutionalizing LEED standards into their policies and practices in the U.S. alone. Now that these standards have received widespread acceptance by the building culture, it is time to stretch beyond the boundaries of the existing checklist to consider what future maturation of the green building standard might entail. Pushing beyond existing LEED standards to consider issues like life-cycle analysis, aesthetics, social justice and equity, and the impact of buildings on climate change is a critical aspect of that conversation. The “Beyond LEED” Symposium will focus on the themes, issues, and design approaches to sustainability not yet captured by the LEED rating system. During the two-day symposium, nationally and internationally known designers, advocates, and scholars will present their visions of sustainable design and participate in dialogue about the next wave of green building strategies and certification. The symposium will be accompanied by an exhibition that blends the underlying theories presented in the symposia with practical case studies of built works that exemplify these concepts. The events will culminate in the publication of a book that will feature writings by the symposium participants on the future of sustainable design, as well as the practical contributions to the exhibition.

Today, there is a high level of demand for sustainable buildings. The most important decisions regarding a building's sustainable features are made during the design and preconstruction stages. Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED®) is the most widely adopted sustainable building rating system in the United States. For projects pursuing LEED certification, designers have to conduct in-depth sustainability analyses based on a building's form, materials, context, and mechanical–electrical–plumbing (MEP) systems. Since Building Information Modelling (BIM) allows for multi-disciplinary information to be superimposed within one model, it creates an opportunity to conduct these analyses accurately and efficiently as compared to the traditional methods. In this exploratory research, a case study was conducted on Salisbury University's Perdue School of Business building to demonstrate the use of BIM for sustainable design and the LEED certification process. First, a conceptual framework was developed to establish the relationship between BIM based sustainability analyses and the LEED certification process. Next, the framework was validated via this case study. The results of this study indicate that documentation supporting LEED credits may be directly or indirectly prepared using the results of BIM-based sustainability analyses software. This process could streamline the LEED certification process and save substantial time and resources which would otherwise be required using traditional methods.
