The Role of Ceramics Tiles and Shades in Thermal Treatments and Aesthetic of facades and Interior Space

Abstract

The environment suffers from thermal changes recently, which has a direct cause of rising temperatures. Reducing the heat transfer through the walls of the building is one of the entrances to environmental design. Since ancient times, man has been trying to adapt to the environment and climate change There are many and different methods of adapting to the environment. The methods of dealing with architectural facades vary with different techniques and mechanisms, and despite the scientific and technological progress in the treatment of facades, the designer seeks to find solutions from nature to reduce the negative impact of technology and some modern raw materials, while at the same time achieve aesthetic and functional values ​​emanating from the surrounding environment. Research problems are: Lack of use the possibilities of stereotyping of ceramic tiles in the design of shadows in architectural facades, Ignoring the importance of shade and light as an aesthetic value in cladding facades and interior spaces using ceramic tiles, and lack of reliance on natural environmental treatments in the facade cladding. Research Goals are: Benefit of shadows design on the architectural facades and interior spaces in reducing the heat transfer of the building, and benefit of shade and light possibilities in Interior cladding design.
