Abstract
There are many ideas and applications for incorporating nature into buildings to improve the quality of the indoor air and to achieve a higher percentage of natural ventilation with pollution reduction. One such idea is to use the Breathing Walls "BW" built on porous materials. The energy used in air-conditioned buildings is reduced by these materials. BW suggests a conceptual design suitable for hot climates and capable of controlling airflow across the entire surface and refrigerating internal spaces in various cooling ways. BW forming all or part of an air-permeable building envelope or exterior provides a comprehensive solution to that and severe issue of self-inflicted environmental harm that many cities now face. BW are the walls that have pores inside them and are capable of spreading water vapor and helping to get rid of moisture and raise indoor air quality (IAQ). In both a social and economic context, IAQ is a significant issue. The definition of breathing walls, their characteristics, and the environmental problems that the BW solve will be discussed in this paper, as well as their impact on the improvement of the indoor air quality.
