60th Anniversary Special Edition of Architectural Science Review

This edition marks the 60th Anniversary Special Edition of Architectural Science. I have prepared a short paper on the ‘Prospect for Architectural Science’, which is drawn from a selection of the most cited, download and read papers from the past 10 years. These papers give an idea of the foci that architectural science has taken over the years. Many of these papers come from Special Editions that have been devoted to cutting edge themes around architectural science. The journal has provided leadership in key topics such as debate on adaptive and mitigation strategies for climate change. The emphasis on building performance has been a strong theme for researchers. Papers selected for this are as follows. Thesepaperswill bemadeavailablegratis on theArchitectural Sciencewebsite. http://www.tandfonline.com/tasr
