As such, it represents a pioneering comprehensive documentation that will contribute to safeguarding existing architectural monuments, while also providing the foundation for further research. Based on that evidence, the editors investigate the material's potential for modern day edifices, especially from the perspective of regional architecture claiming to establish identity and save resources.
