The aim of this research was to examine the design considerations needed to control the access of sunlight in exterior and interior architecture that ensure healthy buildings to avoid deficiency of Vitamin D. The study was conducted in the city of Jeddah, Saudi Arabia through field visits to one hundred and fifty residential buildings for the purpose of measuring the extent of their application considerations in external and internal design. The external considerations usually were imposed on the users and this made them difficult to modify, whilst interior design was shared between the thoughts and experience of designer and the needs and desires of the users. The research question was: What is the extent of design considerations in residential buildings to ensure sufficient sunlight access inside the house? It was found from the results that there are shortcomings in the application of considerations concerning external design, which is the architect and designer's responsibility, such as the direction of the building, setback, landscaping, window size, direction and height of the building. In terms of internal design, considerations included distribution of spatial activities, functional methods and design of systems and technology. A lot of users failed to utilize this design to their advantage to ensure deficiency of Vitamin D inside the house in order to maintain their health as well as to maintain their culture and privacy.

Abstract: (arabic)
يهدف هذا البحث إلى معرفة مدى تطبيق المساكن للاعتبارات التصميمية للتحكم في وصول أشعة الشمس لعناصر العمارة الخارجية والمحتويات الفراغية الداخلية للحصول على مسكن صحي لتفادي نقص فيتامين (د). وقد تمت الدراسة في مدينة جدة بالمملكة العربية السعودية من خلال القيام بزيارات ميدانية إلى مائة وخمسين مبنى سكني بغرض قياس مدى تطبيقها للاعتبارات التصميمية الخارجية والداخلية حيث تتمثل الاعتبارات التصميمية الخارجية بالتصميم المعماري والذي يدخل في نطاق يكاد يكون مفروض على المستخدم ويصعب معه التعديلات الجوهرية ، بينما تمثل الاعتبارات التصميمية الداخلية تشكيل بيئة التصميم الداخلي والتي يتشارك فيها المصمم بفكره وخبرته والمستخدم باحتياجاته ورغباته. ويطرح البحث التساؤل التالي : ما مدى تطبيق الاعتبارات التصميمية في المباني السكنية للتحكم في وصول أشعة الشمس داخل المسكن بما يسمح من تحقيق الاستفادة المثلى من الجانب الإيجابي لها؟ وقد تبين من نتائج البحث الحالي أن هناك قصور في تفعيل الاعتبارات التصميمية الخارجية والتي تقع على عاتق المعماري والمصمم مثل اتجاه المبنى، الارتداد، التشجير، مساحات النوافذ واتجاهها و ارتفاعها، والتصميم المعماري للمبنى - أما من ناحية الاعتبارات التصميمية الداخلية و أساليب توزيع الأنشطة الفراغية الوظيفية ومايتبعها من النظم التصميمية و التقنية. فقد أخفق الكثير من المستخدمين في استغلالها لصالحهم للاستفادة من أشعة الشمس الكافية لتأمين فتامين (د) داخل المنزل وذلك بهدف المحافظة على صحتهم بالإضافة إلى المحافظه عادتهم وتقاليدهم والمتمثلة في خصوصيتهم.
