It is therefore the designer and/or planner who, on different levels, who is
called upon to deal with the issues related to the regulations, the shape of the
urban structures, the orientation of the buildings, the cladding and systems,
and therefore work towards reducing energy consumption and ensuring suitable living comfort.
Therefore, designing buildings today, with a climate which is changing
constantly, means understanding the reasons related to the microclimate,
resources and local materials. Planning in these geographical areas does not
require a strict adherence to architectural shapes of traditional buildings, but
rather an innovative reinterpretation of the reasons which have “naturally”
driven construction for centuries.
