Zaha hadid
Zaha Hadid was born in Iraq and studied in Lebanon before moving to London to study architecture. Some of her most notable works include the Vitra Fire Station in Germany (1993), her first built project, and the MAXXI Museum in Rome (2010). Hadid's deconstructivist style features non-orthogonal angles and a fluid integration of interior and exterior spaces. The Vitra Fire Station demonstrates her early style through a composition of concrete planes that bend and intersect. Her MAXXI Museum absorbs the surrounding landscape through intertwining oblong tubes. Hadid's Phaeno Science Center in Germany appears as a mysterious object connected to the city through sinuous concrete cones that give an illusion of floating.

ZAHA HADID
Zaha Hadid was an Iraqi-British architect known for her neo-futuristic designs characterized by fluid, curving forms. Some of her notable works include the Heydar Aliyev Center in Baku, Azerbaijan and the proposed Guggenheim Vilnius museum in Lithuania. The Heydar Aliyev Center features continuous interior and exterior spaces inspired by Azeri culture. It has a distinctive wave-like shape made of metal panels without straight lines. The Guggenheim Vilnius was planned to showcase new media art but was postponed due to funding issues. While praised for her innovative style, Hadid was also criticized for some works appearing to serve political regimes and disconnecting from public life.

The National Museum in New Delhi is located near major transportation hubs like the Central Secretariat metro station and Indira Gandhi International Airport. It is surrounded by important government buildings and has stone sculptures, paintings, and landscaping around it. The three-floor museum contains numerous exhibition spaces, as well as an auditorium, library, offices, and conservation laboratory. Special lighting and flooring designs were used in different galleries. While the building utilized reinforced concrete and red sandstone, it lacked sufficient parking and had poor fire exit accessibility.
Guggenheim museum @ bilbao
The Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain was designed by American architect Frank Gehry. Known for his deconstructivist style, Gehry designed the museum with unusual twisted and curving forms clad in titanium and stone. The three gallery floors surround a large central atrium connected by glass walkways. Though asymmetrical on the outside with irregular titanium walls, inside provides visitors with interconnecting exhibition spaces flooded with light from the atrium. The unconventional design has become an iconic landmark and major tourist destination, transforming Bilbao into an international cultural center.
Post modern architecture
Postmodern architecture emerged in the 1960s as a rejection of the strict functionalism of modern architecture. It sought to reintroduce ornamentation, color, and references to historical styles. Key characteristics included drawing from multiple sources rather than pure forms, moving away from neutral colors, and taking elements from different styles and combining them in new ways. Notable postmodern architects included Robert Venturi, Philip Johnson, and Michael Graves.
Centre of pompidou
The Centre Pompidou in Paris, France is known for its innovative exposed structure and mechanical systems. Key elements include:
1) A large exposed steel structure and color-coded mechanical systems on the exterior create an "inside-out" design.
2) Flexible floorplates are created through a structural system of hollow steel columns, trusses, and cantilevered gerberette beams.
3) The structure utilizes 13 identical structural bays to create column-free interior spaces for its various museum, library, and exhibition functions.

Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus(CSMT), Mumbai.pptx
The Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus, formerly known as Victoria Terminus, is a historic railway station in Mumbai, India. It was designed in the Victorian Gothic style combining British and Indian architectural influences. Construction began in 1878 and was completed in 1887. In 1996, it was renamed to honor the Maratha emperor Chhatrapati Shivaji. It was added to the UNESCO World Heritage Site list in 2004 due to its outstanding architecture representing the fusion of Victorian Gothic and traditional Indian styles.
Frank gehry
Frank Gehry designed the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles, completing construction in 2003. The building features an intricate exterior of overlapping sculptural forms clad in steel that has been called a work of art. Gehry aimed to create a space with intimate acoustics that represented the hull of a boat to connect the orchestra and audience through music. The design defies symmetry with organic volumes and surfaces bridged by glass, fulfilling an important role in the urban area through Gehry's unique vision.
Beijing national stadium
The Beijing National Stadium, also known as the Bird's Nest, is an innovative stadium built for the 2008 Beijing Olympics that draws inspiration from nature. Its design resembles a bird's nest-like structure of interlocking steel beams that encircle the stadium. The stadium can seat 91,000 spectators and withstand earthquakes up to magnitude 8 due to its flexible steel and concrete structure. The Bird's Nest has become an architectural landmark that demonstrates how biomimicry can be applied to modern building design through its nest-like appearance and use of sustainable materials.
the dancing house by Frank. O. Gehry
This document describes a sculpture called "Fred and Ginger" made of 99 pieces of steel with fully functional interiors that can be used as commercial spaces like restaurants and offices. The sculpture was built on a site destroyed during World War II to encode the effects of violence using deconstruction in a way that implies destruction through a popped out right section, crushed middle, and twisted left section representing the dynamic and graceful yet masculine and feminine aesthetic of the famous dancing duo Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Museum
A museum is an institution that cares for (conserves) a collection of artifacts and other objects of scientific, artistic, cultural, or historical importance and makes them available for public viewing through exhibits that may be permanent or temporary.[1] Most large museums are located in major cities throughout the world and more local ones exist in smaller cities, towns and even the countryside. Museums have varying aims, ranging from serving researchers and specialists to serving the general public. The continuing acceleration in the digitization of information, combined with the increasing capacity of digital information storage, is causing the traditional model of museums (i.e. as static "collections of collections" of three-dimensional specimens and artifacts) to expand to include virtual exhibits and high-resolution images of their collections for perusal, study, and exploration from any place with Internet.[citation needed] The city with the largest number of museums is Mexico City with over 128 museums. According to The World Museum Community, there are more than 55,000 museums in 202 countries.[2]
AA MIHO MUSEUM
The document provides details about the Miho Museum in Japan, which was designed to fulfill the client's requirement of creating a "heaven on earth" experience for visitors. The museum's spatial organization, integration with the surrounding natural site, and use of materials were all influenced by Japanese cultural concepts. It applies principles like shinden-style central courtyards, shakkei "borrowed scenery", and the ma concept of spatial intervals to guide visitors on a journey. The building is mostly underground to minimize environmental impact, using modern materials like steel and limestone to emulate traditional Japanese architecture.
Qatar
Qatar is a small peninsula located in the Persian Gulf. It has a population of around 2 million people, most of whom are expatriates. Qatar was formerly a British protectorate but gained independence in 1971. It has experienced rapid economic growth and development since the discovery of oil and natural gas reserves. Doha is the capital and largest city, with a modern skyline of skyscrapers. Qatar has invested heavily in education and cultural projects through the Qatar Foundation. The country adheres to Islamic cultural traditions but also has a very international community.

Cultural aspects in lighting design
This presentation focuses on the cultural aspects of lighting design in Islamic and Middle Eastern architecture. It discusses the cultural values that influence the need for natural and artificial lighting in Middle Eastern countries. Several solutions were available to provide natural lighting in traditional environments; i.e. courtyards, mushrabiyas, and lighting wells. Cultural values, such as privacy and gender segregation affect the need for natural and artificial lighting sources. I argue that users’ sensory experiences are affected by these cultural backgrounds. The understanding of the importance of good lighting design in urban areas, buildings and interiors is increasing. Light is fundamental for architecture and essential for human well-being. Lighting quality affects human behavior, comfort, health, efficiency, safety and security.

It discusses how tall buildings have become symbols of modernization and economic prosperity in the Gulf region but can pose challenges to integrating with urban fabric. It provides examples of historic and current tall buildings around the world and in the Gulf and Middle East. It also examines trends in tall building development in cities like Doha and Dubai and the effects of rapid urbanization. Both advantages like status and disadvantages like lack of street activity are discussed. The importance of sustainability and cultural identity in future tall building design is emphasized.
WEEF Florence Italy Conference 2015
Project-based learning was used to teach urban planning and design students about resilient cities under rapid urban change in Doha, Qatar. Students worked in groups on two projects: the first involved proposing strategies to preserve and enhance the historical Old Mushaireb neighborhood, and the second involved designing urban corridors to link dispersed developments downtown. The projects provided experience applying urban planning and design methods while addressing issues like historical preservation, mobility, and sustainable development. However, a challenge remains in communicating the practical value of student project work to decision-makers.
2nd Annual Smart Skyscrapers Summit - Dubai - May 2015
This document discusses socio-cultural sustainability challenges of tall buildings and skyscrapers. It notes that while skyscrapers have become symbols of modernity and economic progress in cities in the Middle East, they often fail to properly integrate with the surrounding urban context and public realm. Specific problems identified include a lack of pedestrian connectivity, uninviting streetscapes, and regulatory frameworks not focused enough on placemaking. The document advocates for form-based codes, 3D modeling tools, and design approaches like mixed-use, varying building heights, and enhanced pedestrian areas to help plan more sustainable skyscrapers in the future.
Warm up project table from recycle materials
The document outlines an assignment for an architectural design studio course to design and construct a table using recycled materials. The objectives were to increase awareness of sustainability and reuse of discarded materials. Students were required to design a full-size table using one primary and one secondary recycled material that could hold 20kg of weight. Examples of tables made from recycled materials like books, pallets, and wine barrels were provided for inspiration. Guidance was given on analyzing recycled materials and incorporating them creatively into furniture designs.

Recycle 4 Change
This presentation shares the experience of students at Qatar University, College of Engineering, Department of Architecture and Urban Planning, to develop a useful product from recycled materials. Students were required to design and construct a full size chair made from a recycled material of their choice. The materials chosen for this assignment should be easy to find recycled materials. The concept of “Sustainability” was introduced through a design exercise. The goal of this assignment was to increase the students’ awareness of the sustainability concept and possible reuse of discarded materials. The constraint of the assignment were: To use one primary and one secondary available materials, use of minimum glue, tape, adhesive or bonding materials should be used, and that the chair must be able to hold an average size person (70 KGs). The exercise was successful not only inside the design studio and the produced chairs but also of the level of awareness it achieved in the students, their families and colleagues. It is hoped that through other events like this one, more and more awareness is achieved that becomes a daily habit and routine.

Site Planning and Design Principles - اساسيات تخطيط وتصميم المواقع
Site planning involves organizing land to accommodate a development program efficiently while expressing the character of the site. It considers elements like buildings, roads, walkways, transportation, parking, and landscape features. An important part of site planning is conducting a site analysis, which evaluates the environmental, program, and development constraints and opportunities of a site to inform a rational design approach. A well-executed site analysis lays the foundation for a cost-effective and environmentally sensitive project.

Impact of Climate and Environment Changes on the Sustainability of the Coastal Areas: The Case of Ain Sukhna, Red Sea, Egypt
This paper investigates the impact of climate and environmental changes on the sustainability of the coastal area of Ain Sukhna, Red Sea, Egypt. Ain Sukhna sea shores and Galala mountain region have witnessed rapid change and modifications during the past 50 years. Climate changes are expected to impact this area through the increase in the amount and intensity of rainfall and the rise of seawater tides. Modifications applied to the topography of the mountains through grading and levelling are spreading excavation debris on the sides of the mountains creating a new hazard if swept away by the rainwater. The paper analyzes the design and construction of the coastal and mountain developments and assesses their capacity to withstand these changes. The negative impact of these changes is not only ecological but also physical and socioeconomic. Climate change impacts are becoming more instantaneous and intensified. Place-based strategies for reducing the negative impact of climate change are required to reduce the physical and ecological vulnerabilities and manage the impacts of climate change.

Sustainability of Tourism Development in the city of Ain-Sukhna, Egypt
This document summarizes a journal article that analyzes tourism development in the city of Ain-Sukhna, Egypt over the past 40 years and assesses its impact on natural and cultural resources. It finds that while tourism has brought economic benefits, rapid and unplanned development has negatively impacted the fragile coastal environment through pollution, coral reef degradation, and altering of natural landscapes. The development pattern is not considered sustainable as it poses threats from natural disasters like flash floods and questions the long-term economic viability of many tourism facilities. The document calls for more sustainable approaches to development that preserve the environment and cultural heritage in the region for future generations.

Sustainability of Tourism Development in Al Ain Al Sukhna, Egypt
Due to its significant natural and cultural attractions, tourism is a major economic source for Egypt. Yet, rapid development and construction of touristic facilities has negative impact on the fragile natural and cultural heritage. This paper studies the recent touristic developments of the coastal stretch of Al Ain Al Sukhna – the hot spring in Arabic - on the Red Sea coastal region of Galala mountain, and their impact on the surrounding natural and cultural attractions. Coral reefs and rich marine life have made this stretch among the prime fishing and scuba diving destinations in the world. The area is also famous of its all-year-round sunny beaches, spectacular coastline scenic drive where mountains reach the costal road. Recently, development has started on the mountains following the construction of Galala Mountainous road. Galala City started operating hosting Galal University and several other residential, touristic and commercial facilities. The paper studies the pattern of development in the area during the past 50 years and assesses its impact on the natural and cultural resources.
Typologies of Urban Development in Sukhna-Zaafarana Area.pdf
Development of Sukhna-Zaafarana stretch went several forms and intensities during different periods of time. It is currently witnessing another wave of rapid development resulting in more stress on the natural and urban environment. This paper analyses the typologies of its urban development and their resilience to potential risks of climate change using urban design techniques to analyze the area in terms of character, continuity and quality of the public realm, ease of movement, legibility, adaptability and diversity. In addition, the research analyzes the different natural sites, such as the shoreline, the floodplains, the Galala mountains, and the valleys. Methods used in this study included: survey and analysis of the built and natural environments based on maps and site visits; and SWOT analysis to identify the potential risks and challenges in the area. Maps and tables of typologies based on the date of construction, environmental characteristics, neighborhood planning, architectural design elements, urban design features, landscape design, greenery, and water features are produced. The results of the study indicate the absence of visual connectivity, architectural identity, public services and facilities, and overlapping vehicular and pedestrian circulation. Moreover, the built environment is vulnerable to climate change risks, since most structures on the coast are built either close to the shoreline or on floodplains, hence threatened by sea-level rise and extreme flush floods respectively. The study concludes by suggesting a set of urban design guidelines based on the three principles of sustainability; environmental, economic and equity to achieve a more sustainable and resilient environment.
