The city of Jaipur predominantly has hot and dry climate. Climate responsive architecture techniques of Jaipur are a
result of optimisation of materials and construction technologies that have evolved over time and are still in an evolving stage.
Contemporary architects in Jaipur nowadays pay very little attention to climatic consideration which is leading to reduced
thermal comfort and higher energy consumption. The following research is an attempt to frame bioclimatic design guidelines for
the city of Jaipur, which can act as a first stage design tool for architects, helping them to provide better thermal comfort and
making buildings less resource and energy intensive. This has been facilitated by providing them with a set of passive strategies,
incorporating vernacular features.
