Abstract | ||||
After checking the architecture of the city, it is noted that the structure of the city does not suit the traditions and values of our society and religion. The structure is disconnected and characterized by its separation and the design is based on outside shape which gives an impression of separation and isolation. For architectural aspects, such as the privacy which is considered one of the most important characters of architectural aspects, the designer neglected this value because he is imitating and transferring the models of western architecture, and those models lacked any regulations for holes and frames places that are required to achieve privacy ,thus the inhabitants obliged to use various methods to achieve privacy for their houses The buildings multiuse and as it closed to each other lead to the lack of audio privacy. The researcher concluded that the contemporary architecture lacked privacy as a result of many factors. The researcher also concluded that the preview of contemporary architecture in Jeddeh city reflects the lacking of privacy, thus contemporary architecture lacked audio or visual privacy. | ||||
