The diagrams below show some principles of house design for cool and for warm climates. Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

The diagrams compare the differences between the design of houses in two cool and warm climates. From the figures, it can be inferred that the paramount difference is the shape of the roof.

Also

, another considerable variation is in the location of insulation and the number of windows. We can see that cool-climate buildings have only one window which adjusts the direction of sunlight.

In contrast

, in warm areas, constructions have two apertures in opposite situations.

Furthermore

, in cool places, buildings are constructed on high-angled roofs, whilst in warm areas, roofs have a peak in the middle of it. It is clear to see that in hot climates, in a day, the aperture is closed and covered, and

due to

the roof overhangs for shade, it prevents from reaching sunlight in the house. But at night, windows are open and it provides a flow of wind to the house.

In addition

, buildings in cool places are covered by insulation materials to prevent cold in the house.
