Re-interpreting and Adapting the Site Specific Vernacular Passive House Architectural Strategies for Reducing Building Energy Demand
Building air conditioning being the second largest factor of energy demand, efforts to reduce this even by a small fraction plays an important role in reduction in total global energy demand. Present day concern is to explore for air-conditioning techniques with higher energy efficiency or reduced carbon emissions. As proposed in this paper, another possible solution is to adopt building design strategies with lower need for air-conditioning requirements without compromising on the comfort of its occupants. In this paper, efforts have been made to appreciate and re-interpret the passive housing architectural strategies for temperature control, that were adopted by the vernacular houses of any region. The architectural strategies for thermo-regulation adopted by these vernacular houses were developed along with passage of time, considering the local climate, the available material and of course, the socio-cultural structure of the community. The study was carried out by comparing the architectural strategies adopted by two different vernacular housing forms of south-eastern Turkey namely (i) Domed houses of Harran and (ii) Mardin houses. The aim of this paper is to highlight the fact that though adopting the passive house design techniques of the vernacular house form and including them in modern architecture is a good approach to meet the energy and environment crisis, but the factors like the topography and climate specific to the site should be given due consideration and importance for better results.
