Abstract

Urban formation is a complex interplay of physical infrastructure and socio-cultural dynamics that shape the development and visual identity of cities. Influenced by geographical landscapes, societal structures, and historical contexts, urban planning integrates various architectural elements and legislative frameworks. This study explores the evolution of urban development from ancient civilizations to modern times, emphasizing the role of building regulations in promoting sustainable practices and preserving cultural identities. It examines Egypt as a case study, tracing the historical progression of its urban and building laws, highlighting shifts in policy and their impacts on urban morphology. The analysis underscores the importance of adaptive regulatory frameworks in responding to contemporary challenges such as rapid urbanization and societal changes, thereby shaping the future trajectory of urban environments.
