Decisions which respond to climate make their mark in design, just as structural requirements, lighting provisions, and the limitations of a site do. Presented here are "patterns" which have been developed to illustrate ways in which the design of dwellings can respond to climate. Rules of thumb for passive solar design and natural ventilation are included, as well as suggestions for providing a choice of differently tempered spaces. New patterns of use are also presented for responding to seasonal and diurnal changes. Several example designs are included. These designs all begin with the assumption of a shared-wall form and a Boston climate, but are meant for sites of different sizes, proportions, and orientations. / by Susan Kaufmann Paulos. / M.Arch.

It considers first the general changes in housing demand and the housing industry which have made it necessary to re-evaluate the traditional solution of the detached single-family home in the suburbs. It then analyzes townhouse and apartment design as appropriate for the site and sets performance criteria. Critical to the success of a neighborhood design is the creation of workable, attractive street network and parking layout. There problems are examined and street performance criteria set. Also important for a modest housing scheme is the image of the buildings project to the surrounding community. Photographs of numerous examples of old and new housing forms already existing in Greater Boston are accompanied by a discussion of the uses of different materials. Finally the context of the site in East Cambridge and the major transformations now underway in the area are discussed and a program set for the site, followed by drawings of the design scheme. / by Margaret Reynolds. / M.Arch.
