This research provides an overview of using folding techniques in architecture design, with an emphasis on their new applications. In this overview, we classify folding techniques as computation geometry folding techniques and manual folding techniques. Finally, we provide recommendations for future development.展开更多

Under the sustainable development of environment, energy saving, environmental protection requirements improve continuously. As an energy-intensive industry occupying one third of the total energy consumption, the construction industry’s energy consumption problem becomes increasingly serious. In order to promote human ecological balance and sustainable development of society, combining the ecological concept into the architectural design is imminent. The so-called ecological architecture is based on the nature, guided by sustainable development, and combines the ecological theory into the architecture. This paper briefl y introduces the ecological architecture, discusses the application of ecological ideas in architectural design and its design principle, which plays an important role in the ecological construction’s integrating in architectural design.展开更多

At present, some problems in teaching of the site design are as below: contradiction between teaching content and arrangement of teaching time, separation of theory teaching from design practice, and teaching methods not integrating with the latest design software. For these teaching issues, some reform measures are put forward for the teaching of "Site Design", such as adjusting teaching syllabus, teaching content, arrangement of teaching time, teaching method and teaching means. We hope to develop students holistic thinking in site design and the holistic design concept of site design and architectural design.展开更多

These negative impacts are multiplied in the case of large-scale housing projects where a large number of standardized units are implemented in a repeated manner. This proposed paper will study and evaluate the environmental impacts of large-scale housing projects according to criteria of environmental design. The case study project is Haram City that is a housing project for small low-income families. The project consists of 50,000 housing units and is located in 6th of October City, which has a hot dry desert climate that necessitates special design considerations and applications of environmental design concepts. The project will be analyzed and evaluated in terms of site layout, design of buildings, orientation, materials used, construction techniques, thermal behavior, landscaping, etc.展开更多
