Climate and Architect-Designed Houses
A simple computer simulation program is used for the assessment of the thermal performance of several award-winning architect-designed houses in the Brisbane area. The results show that underheating is a greater problem than overheating and that a builder's house (with slight improvements) performs better. The conclusion is that excellent design features can be negated by simple faults, therefore all factors must be considered at the design stage in their interaction.
