One of the great beauties of archi-tecture is that each time it is like life starting all over again. Renzo Piano

As an architect you design for the present with an awareness of the past for a future which is essentially unknown. Norman Foster

The mother art is architecture. Without an architecture of our own we have no soul of our own civilization.” Frank Lloyd

The aims of this module are to prepare students to be able to present the theo-ries and concepts of Interior design of architectural spaces; present strategies and techniques used in converting and refurbishing buildings. In the group work project, students had to build a physical model for the redesign interior of a select-ed prototype pre-school that is allocated invariablesites(ontheriver,inthefarm,bythesea…etc.).

interior design 2 (Year 4)

The aim of this module is to develop knowledge and understanding of the key spatial, functional and aesthetic elements of interior design of architectural spaces. The individual project aimed at creating a sustainable interior design for the Child-Day care center inside theBUE campus.The students were able to embed sustain-ability aspects in the interior design in dif-ferent forms. This was evident in allowing for maximum daylighting in space either through large semi shaded window open-ings or through using skylights.

The students were also able to include integration with outdoor natural elements in their design.

They were given the plan of the real CDC and they had to make a model with scale 1:50, in which they implemented most of the passive design strategies they had through the course. These strategies include using double walls, thermal insulation, and design of shading devices for build-ing openings and external envelope according to their allocation, design of double insulated roof, and green roof. Using vaults and domes for self- shading in the CDC entrance and in the roof as well. The project was considered an initiative to embed the concept of sustainability in the jun-iorarchitecturecurriculumsaspartoftheIntegratedSustainableChilddaycareCenter(ISCDC)researchproject,fundedbytheBUE

AbstractDesertification has developed as an environmentalcrisis and a global concern since 1977.According tothe United Nations’ conference on desertification(UNCOD) around 100 to 200 million people are af-fectedbydesertification,whichthreatentheirsuste-nanceandhealth(2006).Mankind isthecoresourceof environmental problems and a key element to land degrading. Over the past 20 years, several scholars indicated, that mankind’s constant abusive behav-ior to land and natural resources. Consequently, by 2050 land degradation/decertification will continuewith the worst and lead over 700 million people to mi-gratefromruralurbantothecrowdedcities(UNUESHsources).Urbanecology isa risingfieldwithinurbanindustry, that aim to establish a connection between cities and the environment, a sustainable evolution of cities transformation in order to adopt the alteration of climate, human behavior.

Bachelor-PROJECTSThe Faculty of Architectural Engineering has two types of final year projects. Thefirstisanindividualresearchproject;whilethe second is an individual design project; both are running along the whole year. Ideally, students are required to conduct research in a given area and implement any findingsand/orgaininsightinagivenspe-cialty area which is then employed in his/her design project or the research project can have a separate research focus than the graduation design project.

Research Topics The Architectural Engineering Department allows the students to select their research topics, which ideally wouldbecompatiblewithacademicstaffmembers’research interests. The following research themes are identifiedtocoverthetopicsofferedforYear4stu-dents in 2014/2015. •ConstructionProjectManagement •GreenArchitectureand sustainability •ArchitecturalSciences •CommunityParticipationandWellbeing •Computation,digitaldesign, and innovation •Architecturalhistoryandtheory •Architecturestechnologyandadvanced structural systems •Builtenvironment,environmental psychologyandBehaviour •Newdimensionalitiesinconservationand Sustainable urban development •Architecturallandscapeandgreening

Desert vernacular Architecture: Mixing the traditional buildings knowledge with modern design concepts to reach suitable

buildings in SiwaBy:YosraSallaly,Under the supervision of: Dr. Marwa Dabaieh

AbstractVernacular architecture in Egypt, specifically in the western desert, is starting to disappear and noone has taken any action to stop this destructive phe-nomenon from spreading. Inhabitants arelooking for the global ambitions, modern living facili-ties and started to ignore their traditional,economical, and vernacular settlements and get at-tracted to the skeleton buildings made withindustrial materials, which are not effective with re-spect to their local climatic conditions. Skeletonconcrete buildings are spreading very fast in a notice-able way in the Egyptian western desert andresulted the loss of the identity and heritage buildings of many western desert oasis like SiwaOasis.Siwa Oasis is the location under study for this thesis, as the architecture of this oasis is very uniqueand characterized by the use of Kirsheef (salt blocks) as buildings material. This material is veryeffective and can withstand the climate conditions of Siwa oasis.The aim of this thesis is to determine the actual reason behind the Siwa inhabitants who leave theirtraditional settlements and prefer the skeleton buildings and also to show a prototype for thepossibility of mixing the modern design concepts of architecture with their vernacular buildingsas a solution in order to keep them up-to-date with the social ambitions, architecture buildingsdevelopment and not making them feel old fashioned with their vernacular buildings. The successof making people satisfied with their vernacular build-ings and feeling the modernity will lead thisthesis to great achievements of making the Siwa inhab-itants get reattached again to their vernacularbuildings.

A field trip was arranged in the “Introduction toArchitectural Design, History & Theory” course to Saqqara and the great Pyramids. The main aim of thetripwastoanalyze,experienceandunderstandthe concepts, spatial qualities, building material and structure of the ancient Egyptians’ Architecture.

During the trip, the students started to relate the theories to real life, they started to experience the atmosphere the Ancient Egyptians wanted to cre-ate. It was not just a way to explore, but also to so-cializeandenhancethefreehandsketching.
