The funded project 'Landscapes of Leisure and Politics: The Architectural History of Tourism and Conflict in Cyprus,' funded by the Research Promotion Foundation, has launched.


This research project offers a rigorous historical and critical analysis of the architecture of tourism in Cyprus, in order to reflect on the intertwinement of tourist landscapes with multiple types of politics—specifically, social, ethnic, and environmental conflicts. 

Key objectives:

- Shape contributions to the architectural history of modernism.

- Cast critical perspectives on the practice of architectural design and planning in contested areas.

- Provide new knowledge on the urban, environmental and heritage dimensions of tourism infrastructures/building.

Grant: Research Promotion Foundation, Excellence Hub, 2019-2021

Partners: University of Cyprus (Host), Technion (Israel), Boston University (USA)

Research team: Panayiota Pyla (Coordinator), Alona Nitzan-Shiftan, Sibel Bozdoǧan, Petros Phokaides, Demetris Venizelos

I found the discussion about how leisure spaces connect with history and politics really interesting, especially the way architecture can reflect social changes. Speaking of free time and entertainment, I recently tried Rocket Goal and it’s a fun little game to relax with when you need a quick break. It’s simple, enjoyable, and a nice way to unwind for a few minutes.
