The plan and three dimensional form of building has, therefore, been developed entirely in response to solar geometry. Diurnal swings in temperature are attenuated by judicious design and placement of thermal mass, utilizing local stone as the major material of construction. The resultant building provides a comfortable environment with the temperatures, humidity and air flow levels remain in the comfort zone during all seasons of the year.
