This study explores the transition from the Fourth Industrial Revolution (Industry 4.0) to the Fifth Industrial Revolution (Industry 5.0) within the architectural design discipline. Human-centered innovation is a crucial factor for Industry 5.0, which integrates advanced technology to enhance quality of life and achieve sustainable development. The article aims to examine how architectural design is influenced by the shift between the Fourth Industrial Revolution (I4.0) and the Fifth Industrial Revolution (I5.0). The study focuses on how digital tools and smart technology can be employed in architectural design to create high-performing, eco-friendly structures while involving the end-user in the design process. Addressing the gap between theoretical frameworks and practical applications in architectural education, this study presents student projects as a foundation for discussing design proposals tailored to the new industrial era, offering an alternative method to bridge the gap between theory and practice in architectural education. Through a design studio framework, it emphasizes the role of existing technologies and sustainable design strategies in addressing contemporary challenges. Five case studies illustrate the practical application of these concepts within architectural education, showcasing how design-driven innovation promotes collaboration, research, and critical thinking. By equipping design students with the essential skills to navigate Industry 5.0, this research aligns architectural education with the evolving demands of the construction and engineering sectors, paving the way for architects to actively engage in a sustainable and technologically advanced future.
