They also studied vaulted ceilings for their role in temperature regulation, along with the use of local materials like stone and brick, which contribute to structural resilience and historical authenticity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"selected\">This immersive experience allowed students to deepen their understanding of architectural preservation and conservation in one of the region\u2019s most iconic heritage sites.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span class=\"selected\">Keywords:<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"selected\"> Engineering Education, Cultural Heritage, Interior Design, University Students, Learning, Teaching, Architectural Conservation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/engineering.tiu.edu.iq\/interiordesign\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/photo_8_2024-11-05_14-07-45.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-8189 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/engineering.tiu.edu.iq\/interiordesign\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/photo_8_2024-11-05_14-07-45-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/engineering.tiu.edu.iq\/interiordesign\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/photo_8_2024-11-05_14-07-45-200x150.jpg 200w, https:\/\/engineering.tiu.edu.iq\/interiordesign\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/photo_8_2024-11-05_14-07-45-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/engineering.tiu.edu.iq\/interiordesign\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/photo_8_2024-11-05_14-07-45-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/engineering.tiu.edu.iq\/interiordesign\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/photo_8_2024-11-05_14-07-45-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/engineering.tiu.edu.iq\/interiordesign\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/photo_8_2024-11-05_14-07-45-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/engineering.tiu.edu.iq\/interiordesign\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/photo_8_2024-11-05_14-07-45-800x600.jpg 800w, https:\/\/engineering.tiu.edu.iq\/interiordesign\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/photo_8_2024-11-05_14-07-45-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/engineering.tiu.edu.iq\/interiordesign\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/photo_8_2024-11-05_14-07-45-1200x900.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/engineering.tiu.edu.iq\/interiordesign\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/photo_8_2024-11-05_14-07-45.jpg 1280w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 300px;
