Abstract
Since the beginning of time, the man had made his effort to build an adequate limited environment that allows him to conduct his various activities. The man prepared a space that protects him from the changing climate factors around him. There are limits to climate comfort in terms of temperature, humidity and ventilation. Past those thresholds, there is physical weakness and lack of production.
This study investigates some existing buildings and its surrounding area to study the impact of conventional architectural on the interior environment to conclude some bases and standards that control the thermal and climatic comfort of the residential areas. Then this study presents a proposal for a residential compound which apply these standards to fulfil the thermal comfort inside the buildings and city.
