Abstract

The paper aims at exploring a suitable research methodology to answer probable questions related to passive vernacular design for the temperate climates. It is believed that once the goal is set and appropriate issues for the research are identified, it is just a routine task for a designer to go through further phases of design. Though temperate climate is selected here for discussion, it is believed that a similar investigation procedure could be followed to tackle similar problems in other climatic regions.
