Résumé
Kindergarten classes highlight links between thermal comfort and energy consumption. Class design can be a crucial objective to provide an excellent indoor environment and improve children’s performance. This study investigates living skin application as an ecological solution integrated with kindergarten facades to reduce space conditioning consumption. Simulation is done by using Design Builder Software for a model (10*10 m2) in three different climatic zones in Egypt to determine the most efficient living wall on certain facades with specific air gaps for kindergarten classes
