At the University of Liechtenstein, we try to build bridges between the values of the past, cultural heritage and any necessary renewal, and between regional responsibility and global awareness. Our Institute of Architecture and Planning consider theoretical discourse and practice, up to a scale of 1:1, to be fundamental aspects of our training. We strive to create responsible architecture that offers comprehensive cultural sustainability.
