Abstract

The goal of this research is to examine a methodology in Architectural Education to test the responsiveness of the Urban Heritage environment. The problem was that the historical area in old Jeddah city was not properly covered in both the urban or the architectural academic studies, some efforts were done but they were not enough to fill the gap,. Furthermore there was a full absence of any image that should be given to the students to preserve or develop the local historical precedent. The author tried through an organized study to raise the awareness of his students about this part of knowledge. A tool was designed to help students understanding the local historical environment with a sound architectural and urban study that can reveal its urban and architectural problems and then in turn suggest specific and clear solutions that can be applied in the real world The research sample was designed in a multi level system that can be examined practically in the specified location. Seven levels were examined permeability, variety, legibility, robustness, visual appropriateness, richness and personalization. All data were collected through site surveys, the urban reports that were saved by the Faculty of Environmental Design, and other data from previous workshops held by Jeddah Municipality about historical Jeddah. Some questionnaires were designed as a demand for some qualities examined in the study. The research proves the success of the examined methodology to specify the key problems of the environment and then in turn to suggest and recommend the proper solutions for them.
