Background
Design workshops in schools of architecture can generally be defined as designactivities where creativity processes and operative tools are strongly connected to time-related issues. The design experience is exercised to the best of its potential, emphasizing the interweaving of creative processes and practical issues; Polis University is one of the few platforms, in the Albanian context, in which the concept of workshop represents an interesting way of developing research by design of future development stages of the city. The refraction elaborated during the past years, on this specific area, has been useful as a background for the development of two important international workshops organized in the same area and sharingthe same characteristics.
