No sunshine in winter and extremely hot & humid in summer is the typical Shanghai Climate condition, all make it especially difficult for passive design. According to a recent field survey, there are more than 11,000 villages separates in Great Shanghai region, some of them still keep their original building form for around 100 years. These local dwelling still provide a relatively good internal environment for the local habitat. According to our recent detailed survey and draw of these heritage dwellings (more than 100 housing, located in Feng Xian, Pudong), we focused on what we can learn from the traditional wisdom in passive design and aesthetics to adopt Shanghai Climate condition. Also, Shanghai climate data is analysed to support these findings.
