ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT OF COURTYARDS—A REVIEW AND COMPARISON OF RESIDENTIAL COURTYARD BUILDINGS IN DIFFERENT CLIMATES

Purpose—This paper tries to clarify the environmental impacts of a traditional building form which was developed more than 5000 years ago, under the force of harsh hot climates: courtyard building....
