The Breathing building skin is a way of Natural ventilation which should always be the first option when attempting to deliver fresh air due to its low energy requirements. However, its implementation depends on the presence of certain atmospheric, environmental, and programmatic conditions. The breathing building skin is needed to be used and applied in Egypt to save energy which we now face a huge problem with it whether it was renewable or not. In the absence of the atmospheric, environmental and programmatic conditions the building can become over concentrated with CO2, creating an environment which negatively affects occupant comfort and respiratory health and far away from the comfort zone and the sufficient use for the building also now all the world have the direction of saving energy and environment by using more environmental methods for living. Buildings in Egypt take a huge percentage of the whole percentage of energy used in Egypt. The main objective is to present methods for breathing building skins and its uses as a series of diagrams for moving air, functioning in the same way as our lungs where a volume of air is displaced through the expansion and contraction of a flexible form. That by using breathing building skins and applying it in Egypt can save a huge percentage of our consumed energy .The expected outcome is to present Guidelines for breathing building system to save energy, reach the comfort zone. The breathing building system makes the building sustainable and environmentally friendly.
