Passive Design Strategies for Resilient and Regenerative Buildings

As the world faces increasing environmental pressures and the effects of climate change, the need for resilient and regenerative buildings has become more pressing. Passive design strategies, which rely on natural processes and materials to achieve thermal comfort and reduce energy consumption, have been recognized as a promising approach to creating sustainable and resilient buildings. This research paper aims to investigate how passive design strategies, specifically natural ventilation, daylighting, and passive solar heating, can contribute to the resilience and regenerative capacity of buildings. Through a literature review and case study analysis, this paper will explore the benefits and limitations of passive design strategies for resilience and regeneration, as well as the key design principles and considerations that architects and building designers should take into account when incorporating these strategies into their projects. Overall, this research aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the role of passive design strategies in promoting resilience and regeneration in the built environment and to offer insights and recommendations for architects, designers, and policymakers seeking to create more sustainable and resilient buildings and communities
