This paper aimed to develop a multisensory approach in university campus, based on quantitative and qualitative approaches, investigating sense walk experiences (thermo-visual sound walk) under interactions of luminous, thermal, auditory environments. The study was conducted October 2021, Chetma campus Biskra city, southern Algeria, which remains famous oasis settlement arid regions over the country. A comparative correlation analysis performed between physical dimensions collected through...

Inclusive design (ID) is a process that ensures all people, particularly marginalized groups, can use the environment. in architecture based on accurate data related to user experiences where users’ perception of built environment demonstrates optimal facilitation their expectations, needs, and demands. Despite this, studies about inclusive multisensory architecture, perspective visually impaired people (VIP) still lacking, especially accessing public spaces. To address this gap, study aims...

This study aims initially to evaluate the quality of different soundscapes in public space city Biskra, Algeria. A total 35 participants took part a laboratory experiment, where 28 sound clips one-minute duration taken from spaces were used as stimuli. The A-weighted equivalent continuous pressure level (LAeq,1min) was calculated. rated soundscape using attribute scales provided their own native language. results questionnaire on recorded soundtracks confirm that immediate environment...

This paper aimed to examine the impact of COVID-19 lockdown in Algeria on soundscapes’ components throughout cafe terraces coastal cities. The methodology is based a laboratory qualitative approach established and divided into two stages. And monitoring sound recordings through twenty-one inside city Azzaba was conducted before after whole country due pandemic. Using McNemar’s test first stage, results suggest that measures affect soundscape terraces, specifically predominance anthrophonical...

Occupants' interaction with urban spaces and their behavior is often influenced by environmental dimensions: thermal, visual, acoustic or air quality. Many studies have investigated the relationships between occupants' these dimensions, but just few of them addressed occupants special needs, such as visually impaired. This study, based on measurements' campaign research activities conducted at Biskra (Algeria) inside an park in oasis settlement, provides further investigations about...
