Abstract

The changes that happened to the Egyptian Village are more like a dissociation of the old traditional Egyptian Village with its all social, cultural, economic, political and technological aspects. This dissociation is a result of the struggle between the reality of the village and what the future demands. These changes made the Egyptian Village in the 21st century totally different than before in its all urban, population, cultural and production features. Moreover, having those changes happening fast, there was not enough time for the village to evolve with this change. Consequently, a rural architecture has been resulted with way more disadvantages than advantages; the architectural village did not have any relation to the different environmental aspects. Accordingly, there was no harmony with the climatic factors, neither with the customs and traditions. Houses began to be open and the courtyards areas were declined or even disappeared in many rural houses. Furthermore, the rural house lost its production area which was considered one of the most special characteristics. Also, possessing the new culture with its concrete houses, iron gates, and open terraces made the objective of this research is to reach recommendations help determine the basics which should be considered in the modern Egyptian architectural village. These principles should accomplish the continuity of the healthy, power saving, environment friendly, in harmony with the customs and traditions style. As a result, herein, this research studied and analyzed the rural houses of the architects Hassan Fathy and Ramses Wissa Wassef. Those examples could be considered as applications of the sustainability standards that achieved great results in its environmental performance. This study also aims at reaching the most important sustainability standards which have been applied in these buildings in order to find a strategy attains contemporary rural houses with a special environmental performance.
