The importance of this research is due to the fact that it sheds light on the use of architectural and artistic elements in the design of gardens that Egypt has not witnessed before, and which keep pace with its distinction and uniqueness of international gardens classified as historical gardens due to the scarcity of what they contain. Several elements have been used in historical gardens in Egypt that are models to be followed in the work of private gardens, whether public or in tourist villages, etc., and are considered an important attraction for visitors and tourists. The problem of research lies in the knowledge of Egypt's historical gardens, which were characterized by innovation and creativity, as well as the raw materials that were used in them, and thus the insufficient use of them, in addition to the lack of references and sources that dealt with Egypt's historical gardens .}, keywords = {Historical gardens,Historical,Architectural,artistic}, url = {https://ijarpsd.journals.ekb.eg/article_183102.html}, eprint = {https://ijarpsd.journals.ekb.eg/article_183102_f03860860adc653662db0e11d8bd5b17.pdf} } @article { author = {Hassan Salam, Shaima and Abdel Qader, Murad and Mostafa Kamal Sabry, Hanan and Talaat Al-Daly, Hazem}, title = {Improving the performance of natural lighting in administrative buildings by using responsive parametric shading systems}, journal = {International Journal of Advanced Research on Planning and Sustainable Development}, volume = {2}, number = {2}, pages = {29-39}, year = {2019}, publisher = {October High Institution for Engineering & Technology with Sustainable Development Center}, issn = {2735-539X}, eissn = {2735-5403}, doi = {10.21608/ijarpsd.2019.183103}, abstract = {Having natural lighting inside the building is one of the main strategies for saving energy and meeting the comfort requirements of users. Natural lighting design must be taken into account in the early stages of building design, as it is one of the most important decisions in this stage, and effective natural lighting design requires identifying several factors, including building orientation, sun path, design of envelopes, ceilings, and shading systems. The building envelope is the mediator between the interior and the exterior and thus greatly influences indoor climate, visual comfort and energy saving. Most of the restrictions affecting the building envelope change over time (weather condition - path of the sun. .)Climate change. User preferences. Noise - wind Traditional building envelopes offer a single, stable solution that fits with all possible conditions and cannot adapt to changing conditions. Nevertheless, technological innovations are opening up towards the development of a generation of adaptive (climate-responsive) building envelopes that have the ability to maintain the best building performance configurations. On the changing conditions. Engineers and architects are beginning to experiment with adaptive envelope solutions to control solar radiation and natural lighting. The growing interest in adaptive systems that reconfigure themselves to meet changing climatic conditions and user needs has led to the conceptualization of multi-functional envelopes (responsive and dynamic, in order to increase the responsiveness of shading systems and to reduce systems that operate mechanically.
