Assoc. Prof. Dr. Evgeniya Dimova-Alexandrova serves as Deputy Dean for Academic Affairs at the Faculty of Architecture, University of Architecture, Civil Engineering and Geodesy (UACG) in Sofia, Bulgaria. She leads the Department of Residential Buildings and maintains an active research profile focused on innovative residential architecture solutions, with particular expertise in temporary habitation models and sustainable design approaches. Education PhD in Architecture of Buildings, Structures, Facilities and Details (2014), UACG Master's Degree in Architecture (2001), UACG Specialty in Construction (1995), UACG First English Language High School, Sofia (1994) Research Interests Dr. Dimova-Alexandrova specializes in modern and sustainable models of temporary habitation , with particular expertise in apartment buildings, villa settlements, camps, mobile homes, and resort complexes. Her research explores innovative approaches to space optimization in small residential units and disaster relief housing. Her work bridges architectural design with sustainable development principles, focusing on how residential architecture can adapt to changing social needs, tourism demands, and emergency situations. She has developed typological frameworks for temporary habitation along the Bulgarian Black Sea coast and investigated the potential of camping as a form of sustainable tourism that promotes social communication and environmental awareness. Publication Trends Dr. Dimova-Alexandrova's recent publications demonstrate a consistent focus on residential architecture solutions for temporary habitation across various contexts - from disaster relief to tourism development. Her work increasingly integrates sustainable design principles with practical spatial solutions, reflecting broader trends in architectural research toward environmentally conscious and adaptable housing models. Her research shows particular attention to Bulgarian architectural contexts while drawing on international examples, creating a valuable bridge between local needs and global architectural trends. The evolution of her work shows growing sophistication in addressing space constraints while maintaining habitation quality. Professional Activities Deputy Dean for Academic Affairs, Faculty of Architecture Division Editor, ANNUAL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF ARCHITECTURE, CIVIL ENGINEERING AND GEODESY Active researcher with publications in residential architecture and sustainable design Teaching and Mentoring Dr. Dimova-Alexandrova supervises student projects in regional planning, landscape architecture, urban planning, and the design of residential, public and industrial buildings. Her teaching approach emphasizes practical design skills combined with theoretical understanding of contemporary architectural challenges, particularly in the realm of temporary and sustainable habitation. Research Facilities Her work is supported by UACG's architectural design facilities and research infrastructure, enabling both theoretical research and practical design applications in residential architecture. She maintains connections with international research networks as evidenced by her co-authorship with scholars from multiple institutions.
