Abstract

This paper presents a method to analize bioclimatic conditions in urban areas. The objective is to understand the influence of different design decisions in the microclimate and the environmental quality of outdoor spaces in cities. Taking into account that architects and planners do not easily have access to sophisticated methods for climatic analisis, this study avoids the use of complex tools to quantify attributes. Three design variables, strongly related to the work of designers, are identified; they are surface type, geometry and vegetation. They are evaluated according to their capacity to provide solar access, sun protection, wind protection, access to breezes, sky radiation, evaporative cooling and thermal mass. To exemplify and test the method, a case study is used, highlighting problems and design opportunities.
