Abstract

Global trends and calls from the UN-Habitat discuss the value of public spaces. An individual's physical and psychological health and the high temperature of the planet owing to high pollution rates are negatively affected. This research formulates criteria that realize the concept of human life experience in open areas by maximizing the benefit of the existing and neglected heritage, valued areas, such as an open-air museum. Al-Zahir neighborhood in Cairo, Egypt, was selected for analysis after defining its components and formulating its current problems; the scientific–theoretical base of the study was established by collecting data using an application, Arc GIS. Then, using smart and digital technologies and sustainable elements to conserve the environment and energy, guidelines for creating open-air museums in this region was devised. Additionally, resources to highlight the aesthetics of the visual area's image, improve its functional performance, raise its cultural value, and enhance its human and environmental performance as a national project that the researcher termed as S-Z. OAM.
