Climate-Responsive Design: A Comparative Study using Mahoney Table Across Diverse Indian Climates
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This research paper undertakes a comparative analysis of design guideline recommendations derived from the Mahoney Table across five diverse and distinctive climates according to the Koppen classification of world climates. Mahoney Table is a key analytical tool which aids architects in designing structures that are in harmony with local climates. By leveraging the insights gleaned from the Mahoney Table, architects can tailor design strategies to suit the specific climatic characteristics of each region. This approach not only optimizes building performance but also reduces reliance on mechanical heating or cooling systems, thereby promoting sustainability and environmentally conscious design practices
