Geological heritage encompasses the design of spaces that respond to and preserve natural geological features and archaeological significance. This includes museums, pavilions, and landscape interventions that interpret geological history and make it accessible to visitors.

The community explores how architecture can work with volcanic landscapes, deltas, rock formations, and archaeological sites. Projects range from geological museums and heritage parks to pavilions and landscape transformations that balance contemporary design with the protection of natural and cultural geological resources.
