Tropical architecture, whether traditional, ultramodern or high-tech, uses passive design elements like sunshades, cavity walls, light shelves, overhangs, roof and wall insulation, and shading from large trees to block the intense tropical sun, according to Tropical Architecture articles.
Besides amazing looks, tropical architecture is all about working with the elements of nature to achieve thermal comfort in hot and humid climates.
Tropical houses, especially those with Asian design, often have big roof overhangs to protect interior spaces from the tropical sun’s brightness.
Environmentally correct and sustainable designs are most in fashion nowadays. Tropical design creates a harmonious relationship between nature and humans.
