Traditional and Vernacular
Architecture
All comments are welcomed;
Including
traditional architecture in natural constructions means that traditional
building technologies can serve as source of innovation in the same way as
biological role models.
-The
term "Vernacular" Architecture is mainly used for residential
buildings excluding temples and palaces.
-"Traditional
Architecture" is the term used as constructions for bigger building
tasks deserve investigation.
Traditionally,
locally available resources are used for building, and typologies evolve with
time, more through trial and error than through abstract modelling of some
sort. The influencing factors for the design are the existing environment and
the social and cultural situations. Environmental issues include the
availability of space, building material energy, climate and ecology among
others. Social and cultural situations include knowledge and available technology,
needs of society and culture, symbolism, rules, etc. Within the existing
typologies, diverse influences from a long time span have been applied and
stored, and much is still readable today, even if the developmental process and
the environmental conditions of former times are not known. But the end
product, the surviving typology, is here to be investigated.
Knowledge
to apply this kind of architecture is usually passed on by local tradition.
