Tuesday, 12 Shawwal 1447 AH, corresponding to March 31, 2026 AD

In a move that underscores its academic leadership and commitment to keeping pace with global technological transformations, the Modern Specialized University hosted an exceptional event to showcase projects from the “Interior Design 4” course, which this year focused on integrating sustainability standards and artificial intelligence into the design of cultural centers.

Under the distinguished supervision of Prof. Somia Hassan , students presented design visions that transcend tradition to create interactive spaces that reflect the language of the future.

It is worth noting that the university places great emphasis on the Interior Design Department in a pioneering and distinguished manner, which was clearly evident in the level of support and honor bestowed upon the exhibition. It was attended by the University President, Prof. Mujahid Al-Jabr, accompanied by the Vice President, Prof. Mithaq Al-Jabr,

Dr. Zayed Al-Shawish, Dean of the College of Administrative and Financial Sciences,

Dr. Abdullah Al-Bajali, Dean of the College of Medical Sciences,

Dr. Abdul Ghani Mohi, Dean of Student Affairs,

Mr. Safwan Al-Jabr, Secretary General of the University,

Dr. Yahya Al-Bashari, Head of the Department of Interior Design Engineering,

and Dr. Hamid Taher, Head of the Department of Biomedical Engineering.

The projects addressed the design of comprehensive cultural centers, where artificial intelligence emerged as a pivotal tool in analyzing climate data and spatial distribution. Furthermore, there was a strong emphasis on the concept of sustainability—not merely as a slogan, but as a practical approach in selecting eco-friendly materials and energy-efficient technologies.

The projects focused on the design of comprehensive cultural centers, with artificial intelligence emerging as a central tool for analyzing climate data and optimizing spatial layouts. Furthermore, there was a strong emphasis on sustainability—not merely as a slogan, but as a practical approach involving the selection of eco-friendly materials and energy-efficient technologies.

The designed spaces varied to include:

Smart systems were employed to guide visitors, using sustainable materials that reflect the center’s identity.
The theater was designed with the latest audio and environmental processing technologies, relying on AI algorithms to achieve optimal distribution of sound and lighting.

As for the museum and library, they showcase the splendor of intelligently directed natural lighting, with accessories and design elements selected to enhance the cultural user experience.

Additionally, the designers did not overlook the importance of integration between the interior and exterior. The facades were designed based on the architectural style chosen for each project, incorporating “landscapes” in a way that improves the overall climate and reduces carbon emissions. Notably, the students used artificial intelligence to simulate the sun’s movement in order to select the best shading systems and insulating materials for the facades.

Sustainable and innovative materials were also selected, combining durability with aesthetic appeal.

As for lighting systems, advanced energy-saving technologies were employed to ensure thoughtful light distribution throughout each space.
Regarding accessories, complementary elements were selected that align with the design style and support the cultural function of the space.

At the conclusion of the discussion, attendees praised the high level of achievement reached by the interior design students at the Modern Specialized University. Accordingly, the university remains an educational beacon striving to equip its students with the tools of the modern age, so they may become the engineers of the future capable of integrating technology with sustainability to serve society and develop the built environment.
