Description

The Tropical House Design Handbook by Routledge is a comprehensive guide to designing homes in tropical climates that balance comfort, safety and environmental responsibility. This reference work covers bioclimatic principles for creating dwellings that work with natural conditions rather than against them, reducing reliance on mechanical cooling and energy consumption. Architects, designers and builders will find practical strategies for orientation, ventilation, materials selection and site planning that keep tropical homes naturally comfortable whilst minimising ecological impact. The handbook addresses the unique challenges of hot, humid climates where rain, heat and solar gain demand thoughtful design solutions. Whether you're planning a new build or retrofitting existing structures, this Routledge publication offers evidence-based methods for creating homes that are economical to operate, safe from weather extremes, and respectful of the tropical environment.
