Alternative architecture as a new approach to achieve energy efficiency : guiding bio-mimicry in architectural design

الملخص EN

Undoubtedly The environmental problems are all connected we cannot ignore the environmental return of the wrong use of energy and building materials and their negative impact on environment construction sector contributes significantly to the rate of global energy consumption and residues construction leads to emissions of dioxide gas Carbon.

Moreover, it was urgent need to find a technology more compatible with the environment which was the beginning of using eco-friendly materials returning to nature which is not new it has started to appeal by the Architect “Hassan fathy” who started environmentally compliant architecture.

Currently, the idea of alternative architecture addressed in the research is like alternative medicine where return to the original.

Alternative medicine has begun to approach the use of natural methods and the dimension of chemical substances and their long-term and short-term impact.

the interest of the world at present in the preservation and sustainability of the environment which is adopted by alternative architecture thinking through an alternative way of thinking to save energy with almost non-existent impact with natural base by reunion architecture with the mother of nature to rationalize energy consumption in architectural design.
