Abstract
As a result of the political and economic developments taking place in Egypt to keep peace with other countries, the New Administrative Capital City is a beginning to achieve progress not only economically and socially but also environmentally. The project depends on meeting the user’s social, cultural and economic needs without harming the surrounding natural environment and by using renewable energy to achieve the principles of sustainability and green architecture. The aim of this research is to study the design and the effect of the New Administrative Capital City in economic and environmental, and how it achieves sustainability through urban design and detailed design. Also, discusses the different views of the project either positive or negative, with clear responses to negative views. Finally, it shows how could the New Administrative Capital City could be as a model to any designer want to create sustainable and ecofriendly city.
