Holistic Approach to Ecological Design Parameters of Building and Landscape Design on Outdoor Thermal Comfort in Hot, Humid Climate

In this study, academic staff residential buildings were studied as part of a university campus located in hot and humid climate zone Türkiye. Within the scope energy efficient architectural landscape design decisions built 1976 examined. The aim was to determine performance about 50 years ago quantify effect changing conditions on thermal comfort. aim, outdoor comfort level determined by creating microclimate simulations for hottest day time year. Microclimatic analyses performed with ENVI-met software evaluated two metrics, average PMV ASHRAE scale. using ecological parameters. An approach global environmental problems is use principles, including principles. It important consider both criteria when discussing environment. Architectural regions together increased efficiency 51.1% 75.5%. found that although plant improves range value, it improved 15% 22%. As result, study climate-balanced building order improve
