TEC(Total Environmental Comfort) : your house must meet this criteria for it to be called a home. The concept of TEC is about designing buildings in such a way that what you feel when you go under a tree away from the hot sun should be the same when you go inside your house! TEC is obtainable when you consider the thermal comfort.
Having a windward and a leeward windows could meet this criteria. Also having provision for a heater in the house could also meet this criteria. These will act as a solution for the hot and cold weather conditions
The idea behind class is about aesthetics! What does your house look like? What should it look like?
I will talk about that in my next post.
