The clubhouse is the heart of the residential development on the coast of lake Nasser that is popular with fishing. the clubhouse serves as a social hub as well as a start point for the dwellers to enjoy there fishing trips. Designed to have a strong presence, pleasing to the eye and an atmospheric getaway with interesting views from every angle.
Massive walls, Cultures in climates where the temperatures are disturbingly hot during the day and cool at night exhibit buildings with thick walls of brick or stone which, in addition to their insulating properties, function as heat reservoirs: during the hot day, the heat flow from exterior to interior is retarded and during cooler hours a given part of the heat imprisoned in the walls is released towards internal spaces.
Dome and air vents, A curved roof has a larger convection heat transfer surface, whereby it is more easily cooled. When an air vent is added to the top of a curved ceiling, the latter is rendered more effective. When air flows over a cylindrical or spherical object, the velocity of the air at the apex is increased and as a consequence, the pressure at the apex is lowered. The pressure difference induces the internal hot air to be discharged out through the air vent. A pool or a fountain below the dome further cools the air moving through the room

The internal patio environment is a cooler private area suitable for many uses. center courts has proven most responsive to the rigorous conditions of hot-arid regions. It helps ventilation and filters dust, sand and noise.
It moderates the climatic extremes in many ways. this one also provides expansive views to the lake and a perfect gateway after a long day of fishing and fun.
