Abstract- Architectural heritage is a powerful image of the community's identity and is only a natural result of human interaction with the surrounding environment. heritage–based -architectural articulations are a way to achieve human comfort in certain conditions and environments. This paper discusses the relationship between architectural heritage and community identity.
It also analyses the different parameters of vernacular articulations and enhanced vernacular articulations that control indoor human thermal comfort. In addition, the paper focuses on the factors affecting these articulations such as airflow, wind, temperature regulation, and light control. the results of this analytical process indicate how design configurations of …
