Ivett-Greta Zsak | Data-Driven | Best Researcher Award

PhD Candidate, Technical University of Cluj-Napoca, Romania

Ms. Ivett-Greta Zsak, a Romanian architect, lecturer, and PhD candidate at the Technical University of Cluj-Napoca, is an influential figure in sustainable architecture and heritage preservation. She earned her Diploma in Architecture from the University of Oradea under the board of UAUIM Bucharest and has since established herself as a practicing architect and administrator of Zero Positive Architecture SRL. Currently serving as an expert at Living Lab 10 within the EU GREEN European University Alliance for Sustainability and as an associate lecturer at the University of Oradea, she combines academic engagement with professional innovation. Her doctoral research focuses on civil engineering and installation, contributing to frameworks such as the Building Identity Passport (BIP) for prefabricated housing rehabilitation, published in Sustainability in 2025. She is actively engaged in heritage protection as the coordinator of the Ambulance for Monuments – Bihor branch and has co-authored the national Architecture Guidelines for Rural Areas. Recognized with multiple awards, including two first prizes at the 2023 Transylvania Architecture Biennale, she continues to impact both theory and practice in architecture. With 11 citations across 2 documents and an h-index of 2, her scholarly work, though emerging, reflects her growing influence at the intersection of sustainable design, cultural heritage, and participatory architecture.
