This study provides insight into the role of experience in facilitating conceptualisation process to enable students to harness relevant problems-solving skills. One of the key strategies of the current study is to analyse how students transform their ideas from abstract to physical form through the conceptualisation process within the studio learning environment. Two aspects were considered (1) the factors that influence the student's actions in designing, and (2) the role of critique in stimulating the student's conceptual design towards final design stage. Evidences were gathered from students' dynamic cognitive interactions with knowledge and experience as transpired through the studio environment.Keywords: Conceptualisation, conceptual design process, reflective knowledgeeISSN 2398-4295 © 2018.

Through all times, scholars interpreted the Quranic verses of water by emphasising on the essential role of water upon the physical formation of plants. This study aimed to extend this interpretation from a behavioural science background. Mix methods were used, systematic literature review and integrative analysis. With the blue-space theory, It concluded that water does not have a role in building the physical-form only. But, also the spiritual-creation. God mentioned in the Quran that water brings everything alive; it seemed that it was not limited to the physical form of a human, as mentioned by scholars. But also the spiritual form.  Keywords: Blue-space; Water; Quran; Quality Of Life. eISSN: 2398-4287© 2020. The Authors. Published for AMER ABRA cE-Bs by e-International Publishing House, Ltd., UK.

The city of Cairo - since the beginning of the third millennium - has witnessed a constructional expansion of new cities for people of class A to live within gated communities, which provide luxury and safety. This research aims to identify the tangible and intangible needs from the occupants’ and the interior designer’s perspective, due to the diversity of these needs. The identification of these demands may help to clarify the requirements provided by the large construction companies, which will highlight the role of the interior designer in the design process of the residential units.Keywords: Interior design in Egypt, Contemporary Egyptian residences, Egyptian residential needs, Gated communities in Egypt.eISSN: 2398-4287© 2019.

The designated learning environment for autism is unique and should consider sensory issues to overcome their needs. The purpose of this paper is to review related articles to gain a better understanding of autism needs regarding sensory design, sensory issues, sensory space, internal environment, and physical learning environment. This paper will outline the sensory design of the physical learning environment that would impact the sensory design towards the physical learning environment. This research paper concludes to be a guide for the designer to overcome sensory input so that autistic can learn more efficiently and develop with less stress.Keywords: Autism; sensory design; sensory issues; physical learning environmenteISSN: 2398-4295 © 2019.

This paper aimed to complete a rigorous, systematic exploration of the literature investigating the effects of psychological factors on the financial well-being in Malaysia context. We identified 13 papers that report empirical evidence on the effect of psychological factors on the financial well-being in Malaysia context. The findings conclude that the studies in financial well-being are focusing on four groups of respondents namely college student, young employees, singles mothers and Muslim individual and the eleven types of psychological variables are identified. This assemblage of reviewed research papers will be useful for the academia and government to cultivate understanding on the psychological rumblings of an individual and leading to greater financial well-being, hence uplifting the quality of life of affected parties.Keywords: Financial well-being; Financial behaviour; Psychological Factors;eISSN: 2398-4287 © 2020.

The present research uses toy packaging as an exploratory case study to test the research design. The case study is so selected since it involves merchandizes in conflict between the needs of children and the trust of guardians. It also engages the role of playing as a learning process promoting children’s imaginary and creativity thinking. Visual stimuli along with self-report questionnaires are used to test the perceptual response of both children and guardians on the aspects of attractiveness, safety, value and taste. The study found a number of contradictions on preferences between children and parents which demands design rethinking. Keywords: children’ visual perception, package design © 2017. The Authors.

Civil society plays an important role in supporting the development of the country. However, the lack of current studies focuses on this aspect, especially from the fiqh approach. Thus, this paper will explore the principle of ‘La Dharar Wa La Dhirar’ as a guide in empowering the role of civil society in the built environment. This qualitative study accomplished the content analysis from Kitab al-I’lan Bi Ahkam Al-Bunyan. The findings indicated that several essences derived from the Kitab related the roles of civil society towards the sustainable built environment in the future.

The Malaysian government had announced the Movement Control Order (MCO) to handle the Covid-19 crisis. During MCO, the government has used media channels to spread the information to the public. This research aims to identify the mediating part of both knowledge and awareness between students' attitude and media role during MCO. The findings from 338 respondents analysed using structural equation modelling found that knowledge and awareness mediate between media and students' attitude. This study could guide policymakers to promote a greater understanding of the coronavirus pandemic by using the mass media.

This paper examines the role of culture and religion in the conception and regulation of visual privacy and design attributes affecting it. The study involves a survey interview of 381 respondents and 11 case studies of Malay Muslims living in two-storey terrace housing in urban areas in Malaysia. Findings indicate despite changes in living condition and a new paradigm in culture-housing, culture and religion play an important role in the conception and regulation of visual privacy. Successful regulation through the physical element and behavioural norms provides visual privacy despite the lack of visual privacy due to design attributes.Keywords: Visual privacy; culture; religion; privacy regulationeISSN 2398-4295 © 2018.
