―― PROJECT OVERVIEW
New Tiba University in Luxor is a campus master plan designed for a challenging hot climate and a contoured terrain. The design responds intelligently to its environmental context, promoting efficient movement across the site through the shortest and most logical circulation paths.
A series of small urban nodes is distributed across the campus — shaded outdoor spaces that encourage natural ventilation, social interaction and user comfort in the face of harsh weather conditions.
The master plan clearly separates teaching zones from administrative and academic areas, ensuring both functionality and privacy. The centrally positioned library acts as a spatial and symbolic anchor, placed on an elevated site that buffers external noise and improves the acoustic environment.
Sustainability and energy efficiency are at the core of the approach, relying on passive design strategies to achieve thermal comfort while reducing energy consumption and long-term operational costs — creating a resilient, user-centered campus in harmony with its landscape and educational mission.
