dc.description.abstractThis thesis explores how residential buildings in modern Jeddah can creatively incorporate aspects of sustainability and cultural heritage. It addresses challenges brought up by the prevalence of uninspiring residential projects and rapid urbanization, arguing in favor of an integral strategy that encompasses both traditional and contemporary design aspects. Incorporating local materials, climate-responsive designs, and innovative solutions are highlighted in the research through case studies on modern and traditional architecture, including Beit Nassif and the Aeali Jeddah project. This thesis integrates insights from interviews and surveys with local architects into experimental design to investigate local possibilities. The findings highlight the need for creative yet contextually appropriate solutions that enhance Jeddah’s urban landscape by supporting environmental sustainability and maintaining cultural identity.
