Abstract

Abstract:
Establishing Natural-scientific systems to form energy-efficient spaces to maintain a balance. This study investigates sustainable interior design techniques to improve community involvement and energy efficiency at Egypt's Art and Culture City, which is located in the New Administrative Capital. Creating comfortable, well-ventilated areas that reduce the need for mechanical cooling is a major problem in this project, particularly given Egypt's hot, dry climate. To reduce energy demands, two primary solutions are suggested:
1) utilizing innovative color air structural materials to enable passive cooling and natural ventilation.
2) implementing fractal-based designs, particularly the Sierpinski pattern, in the art gallery. This pattern serves as a sunshade that naturally filters light, while controlling airflow, helping maintain a balanced indoor climate is methodically proved.
Both solutions aim to provide a sustainable approach to interior architecture, where form and material work together to achieve energy efficiency. A survey that focuses on the opinions of at least thirty visitors and stakeholders about indoor air quality, comfort, and the efficacy of sustainable design elements is part of the research to evaluate these tactics. The information will be used to assess how fractal-based designs and novel materials enhance interior spaces' aesthetic and functional aspects. By showing how specific design and material selections can improve energy efficiency and community experience in public cultural institutions, this study ultimately seeks to advance sustainable design methods.
