Local Knowledge About Climate Based Building

Climate based building refers to both a structure and to processes that are environmentally responsible and resource-efficient throughout a building's life-cycle: from siting to design, construction, operation, maintenance, renovation, and demolition. In other words, climate based building design involves finding the optimal path for building and maintaining a sustainable environment. This requires close cooperation of the design team, the architects, the engineers, and the client at all project stages. Climate Based Building exceeds, expands and complements the classical building concerns of economy, utility, durability, and comfort.
