Abstract

 
While various countries all over the world suffer from a real energy lack, Energy becomes essential for economic evolution in any country for two main causes; first that its mandatory for domestic development, and it‘s a rich source of foreign currencies.
To avoid energy scarcity in Egypt; the community has to change its habits in different approaches and aspects to overcome any future lack in energy and at the same time to offer a sustainable community. Nowadays environmental technologies become an important discipline to take in consideration, as the sustainable smart approach will be a significant arena for economic competitions between building (especially Homes), which of them is more environmentally friend and fulfill human intelligent needs.
The main aim of this research is to consolidate Smart approach with ecological Discipline aiming to enhance ecological sustainability through integrated intelligent of architecture, the research gathered information about architecture chronological approaches through a logical review. Further, the research educes from this approaches an elaborated criterion to follow, and a real range for designers to apply in smart sustainable homes
This productive scientific intellectual offers specific procedures for innovating and designing a new compatibility viable architecture. this architecture countenance merging between two major poles, which are; building smartness and environmental control,Turning residential buildings to Smart Ecological (SE) Home through; the application of intelligent and /or knowledge to automate the operation of building systems, the fulfillment of the ecological potentials concerning the environmental issue, preserving the natural environment, and minimize the economics used by home before and after construction. The study closes with the synthesis of main preliminary guide lines of the SE concept. Not only through hypothetical stage based on elaborated scientific search but also via practical investigation based on further analysis of the two major branches (smart-ecology). The purpose of the study is to create a new approach that integrates smart and ecological features with each other creating an elaborated approach that fulfill occupants needs, and at the same time provide comfort for occupants inside the homes. Also it offers energy conservation and a natural atmosphere desired for building consumers without harming the contiguous environment.
