Item Sustainable Solutions for Urban Extensions and Informal Housing: Lessons from Hany El-Miniawy's Legacy in Southern Algeria(جامعة باتنة 1, 2024-10-20) Kaihoul, Ahmed; Efisio, Pitzalis; Sriti, LeilaThis paper explores the architectural contributions of the El-Miniawy brothers in the southern regions of Algeria, highlighting their unique approach to harmonising architecture with nature and culture and its relevance to the challenges of urban extensions and informal housing. The architects' work is characterised by a profound understanding of the environment and a commitment to preserving cultural identity through innovative design concepts, which are crucial in addressing the complexities of informal settlements and urban sprawl. Focusing on three case studies - Maader Village in Bou-Saada, 400 Housing Units in El-Oued, and 600 Housing Units in Ouled Djellal - we delve into their environmentally conscious, culturally sensitive architectural principles.
