Integrating Cultural Legacy, Eco-Design Strategies, and Digital Innovation in Contemporary Architecture: A Comprehensive Perspective

Abstract

Modern architectural design is increasingly challenged to reconcile cultural continuity, environmental responsibility, and technological advancement under the pressures of rapid urbanization and the global push for sustainability. This paper examines how traditional architectural motifs can be reinterpreted in contemporary residential design, explores the contribution of natural lighting to energy-efficient buildings, and discusses the pedagogical potential of BIM technology in construction education. By synthesizing these dimensions, the study proposes an integrative approach that links cultural meaning, ecological performance, and digital innovation. The results indicate that adopting localized design elements, optimizing daylighting strategies, and embedding BIM training into education and practice not only address modern housing needs but also foster cultural resilience and support the long-term sustainability of the construction sector.
