Sun is the main source of energy to our world , it radiate our world
through flow of photons : the basic unit of all light . Photons always in motion and spread in a dynamic random way , its speed is 2.998*10 which is the speed of light . photons carry energy to the whole world , it hit electrons and change energy levels forward , so the emitted photons will affect on youth by giving them energy ,strengthen their minds and bones and gives hope of bright future and goal achievement from the
core of the sun to the whole world .

* Project's Name is ( Sparko ) inspired from the sparks that exist from the light which enhance the idea of energy , speed and motion , which relate to the concept of the sun energy .

Technické informace

Sustainability:
- using natural materials that surrounds the project as new Alamein city environment featured with rocks , sands , desert plants , water and stones , so natural materials used in construction and cladding as :
- using natural rocks from the surrounded area used in flooring design and wall claddings
- using natural stones from the surrounded environment used in flooring surfaces and cladding of the climbing walls
- natural sand from the surrounded area its affordable with large amounts .
- using natural desert plants found in the environment , used in the biking hub flooring surface .
- using natural color pigments from the sand to make the zones colorful.

- Using slate mortar in wall plastering as it is affordable in the area .
* day light system : as the project mainly depends on natural light as it :
- enhance the concept of the project as it is that the sun is the core that emits energy to everything around .
- save energy
-more natural touch to the place
* Interactive kinetic flooring and climbing holds : to take benefits from youth's motion , the youth center provide this kind of flooring and climbing holds to generate energy from their motion as it work by the motion's pressure on it .

Technology used in the project :
- Curtain walls system : to save lighting costs and enhance the view and connect other buildings together.
- Touch screens : to facilitate the visitor experience .
- HVAC system : It will be the main ventilation source to the space and easy to control the space’s temperature .
- Fire system : To avoid burn cases and enhance the safety system .
- Daylight system : to save artificial lighting costs and support the concept of the project as it is the sun .
- Solar energy system : to save electric energy and generate it and this helps the building to be more independent .
- Security camera system : Enhance the security system and avoid any type of crimes and illegal works .
- Interactive walls system : Add more entertainment to the
visitor experience .
- Natural ventilation system : to take benefits of the fresh air as the project is located in front of the sea directly .
- Kinetic floor system : to save electric energy and generate it from youth’s motion , this helps the building to be more independent .
