| Abstract | With the current rapid pace of construction in South East and East Asia, built form and blocks are changing significantly, having impact on the building physics and environmental performance of macro [urban] environments. Such change at macro scale has major impact on how spaces and blocks are shaped and developed. This has direct impacts on urban ventilation systems (both passive and active) and the built form or physics of the urban environments, including but not limited to, orientation, layout, massing and form. The paper reviews the various opportunities for macro cooling via improved built form for urban residential environments and will further explore possibilities of urban cooling for the context of Asia. This paper specifically includes tropical and the warming sub-tropical areas of Asia. |
