My colleague, Xiaoxin, and I won “Best Student Paper Award” for the article we wrote for the 2019 Digital Cultural Heritage International Conference that took place at Tongji University in Shanghai on 24-25 November.

We wrote about the digital methods we used during our research fieldwork in Ahmedabad, India (by me) and Lili, China (by Xiaoxin) to explore cultural heritage and the connection between people’s preferred lifestyles and the built environment they live within.
