The human has a long history in the adaptation of architectural spaces with a view to
its compatibility with the requirements of the environment in which they live, including, try
as much as possible to create architecture consistent with the data
environment with all its
climatic, social and economic components.
This mismatch between the architecture and the environment has continued for so
long of time right up to contemporary period in our local area and where large gap occurred
between architecture and the environment led to the absence of environmental studies in
the local buildings, which reflected negatively on the natural environment surrounding
components and created buildings uneconomical high cost in terms of operating .
Considering that administrative buildings one of the most important urban fabric
components of the city was to study the environmental architecture applications in these
buildings in the case of the city of Latakia, the great importance which indicated that these
buildings are far from the concepts of environmental architecture and it is limited to
designs very primitive in terms of the environment and the possibilities of harmony and
compatibility with Environment.
This gap between the environment and building administrative building invited us to
the need to call attention to environmental architecture and quickly begin to develop and
controls systems that work to create an administrative building environmental
sustainability and achieve the desired economic and interact with the surrounding natural
environment and ensure the health and psychological life to its users.
