Tracking Sustainable Design Strategies of Historical Buildings

Abstract

The sustainable design strategies of historical buildings in a heritage village in Saudi Arabia are examined in this study. The approach to the problem of resource conservation seen in the selected examples of heritage architecture allows for the analysis and discussion of past building practices that are still regarded as significant in terms of sustainability and environmental design. The focus of this study is on the track of sustainable design techniques relating to resource reuse, building material conservation, and waste reduction procedures in the form of waste integration into new building materials.
