Applicability of Inspirations from Nature and Wisdom from Vernacular Architecture in Synergy with AI for Design of Sustainable Buildings

Abstract

The climate change is there and its adverse effects are being experienced world over. This is not a new phenomenon and has been happening for many ages. Nature provides a large number of examples where species living in different climatic zones have learned to modify themselves with the frequent and cyclic climatic changes and have survived for millions of years. Human beings have also learned, through experience of ages, to live in different climatic conditions by modifying their habitat. The paper proposes to take lessons from nature and the vernacular wisdom in order to use the same in the modern architecture, through the application of the Artificial Intelligence in process of making sustainable modern architecture compatible with environment and capable of adapting to the changes.
