In Regenerative Design for Sustainable Development, John Tillman Lyle writes, “To control the flow of energy within a building, the materials and the details of their assembly must augment the form. Five elements of a building are particularly important for their roles in the thermal regime..." This course explores those five elements and how they determine thermal comfort.
